They don't have support from the masses because the masses keep telling themselves that voting for a third party candidate is a complete waste of time. If just a few million people would get out of this mindset, they would realize that all it would take is 5% of the national vote to change everything. The party that gets a minimum of 5% of the vote is eligible for national funding and other rights that are currently enjoyed by the two main parties. In 2012, Gary Johnson, who was running under the Libertarian ticket got 1% of the vote, which was considered an accomplishment. So I say if you feel like voting for a third party is a waste of time, then don't vote at all because voting for the lesser of the two evils is still a vote for evil.
So if you end up voting for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton even though you don't like either one of them, then you're part of the problem and not the solution.
