The more money your campaign has, the better chance you win, because you can put more commercials and reach more voters, etc. Is it possible to change this?

Yes, other countries do it. Public funding of elections is the way to go, so anyone can run for office without having to beg the rich and the powerful for money.
If we dont get big money out of politics, the American people will slide further into the abyss.

Yep, that's why Jeb Bush, who had over a $100 million in his bank roll, the candidate with the most funds by far, is currently the frontrunner of the Republican Party.

$100M isn't all that much relative to what Trump has available to him.

Why do you allow this to influence your vote? <-------- answer to your question.

Less and less people watch live tv...I watch a few shows and sports. I dont recall watching a show on demand and seeing any political ads. The people who watch the news shows like cnn fox etc already have a candidate. NY primaries are coming soon and I haven't seen many ads yet... What Trump is doing with social media and making headlines for free reaches more people and is more effective. Campaign funds are better spent on organizing setting up call centers, going door to door to get the message out etc... Jeb! And little Marco spent lots of cash on ads, but their campaigns tanked. Hillary got the super pacs and tons of cash but is just a step ahead of Sanders.
