I have a 96 Stratus with 213000 miles. It runs great when I first start it up, however, once it warms up it starts running rough. When I come to a stop it almost dies. I've also noticed that the lights dim when I come to a stop at night. I've tried fuel injector cleaner, but that didn't work. What could it be?

I am guessing that your check engine light is not on. Start by checking for vacuum leaks and EGR system. That is the most common for easy cold start but erratic/surging when warm.
