How does one start a new political party in the US?

I know lots of money and a lot of people that agree with you is needed, but what else does one need to make it a legitimate political party. I want to start a new one called the Common Sense Party, since it seems the major partys we have now don't have any.

It's not creating one the problem, it's having one vote more than the 2nd most voted one.

In any case "common sense" is a stupid concept in politics. What's "common sense" is to a conservative may very well be the opposite of what "common sense" is to a progressive.
