If they were candidates, they would completely divest themselves of all party affiliation, and run as candidates for President.
And instead of wasting their time trying to convince democrat and republican voters to change their votes or anything, they have to chase after the 120-150 million people that don't vote. Both are already popular amongst the disenfranchised, just ignore the republicans and democrats. They're outnumbered! Put that on the bumper sticker and there's a chance. Won't hurt to do Monty Python sketches on the impeachment theater and show pictures of the Chinese military build up either. (Whoops! There goes Korea)
A Bernie/Tulsi ticket is a perfectly acceptable compromise. We have a nice healthy VP for insurance, ready to take command when he kicks... The numbers are there if people take their own initiative to put them on the ballot, and just show up and vote. Nobody has to say anything to the press or anything.. Mum's the word until Voting Day. No ads are necessary. Instead of making speeches and begging for money, the candidates will answer questions when they travel around. If everybody takes their own initiative, the effort is completely trivial, and instantaneous, kinda, there are forms to fill out. But if everybody gets up off the Group W bench and sings just one time, in three part harmony... Ya gotta sing loud

The last presidential candidate to bring a substantial number of voters off the sidelines was... Trump. Before that... not sure... might have to go back before Ike... maybe FDR?
Just because they aren’t voting doesn’t mean you’ll want to appeal to them. Or want them appealed to.
