Terminal requires "" for input response

There was a similar question on this matter, but it didn't exactly address my issue. Terminal on OS X requires "" on my input, otherwise it is deemed invalid. I saw a few suggestions saying to use raw_input because most likely I'm running python 2.x How do I manage to use python3?
