Ah. Okay.
Then you are only up against the election laws in the various states which seem written to enshrine exactly that. That's a big enough nut to overcome and the third party "wave" will recede after the election and not be thought of again until 4 years from now. Therein lies the problem. These two alleged 3d parties are not viable.
Meanwhile, announced today.

Quote: In a normal election season, this announcement wouldn't matter much.
But this year Johnson, the Libertarian Party nominee, and Jill Stein, the Green Party contender, are both hoping to make the cut.
Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are the only two definite participants, since they are polling well above the commission's 15% threshold for invitations.
Johnson and Stein are below the threshold and are trying to change that between now and mid-September. That's when the commission's "selection criteria" will be applied.
On Monday, the commission announced the five polls that will be averaged together to determine who is receiving 15% support nationwide.
The polls are ABC-Washington Post; CBS-New York Times; CNN-Opinion Research Corporation; Fox News; and NBC-Wall Street Journal.
