The President should be elected directly by the people.

In the U.S.A. we have two major parties. All other parties are treated as "independents." Only the Republicans and Democrats get major media attention. People who vote for independent candidates are said to be throwing their votes away. We need to bring the two-party system to an end. Other parties should be able to have primaries. After the parties choose their candidates elect their candidates there should be a preliminary election, and the two top candidates from that election should run against each other in the final election. Here I am talking about the presidential election. The people should be able to vote directly on the candidates in every step of the process.
