The main rule that prevented other candidates on the stage was the polling qualification. Other rules such as being on enough State ballots to receive 270 electoral votes are in place. That would limit the on stage contenders. The Libertarian Party Johnson/Weld Ticket should have been in the debates. Green Party Jill Stein as well. The Debate commission used in accurate polls (excluded 18-35 yrs) to keep others off. It takes a lot of work to get on most State ballots and being on enough for 270 should be auto-inclusion to televised debates.
