Diplomacy: This isn't a cheat as much as it is a trick to get other races
to join you all at once. It places you massively in debt, so make sure you
have nothing important to do for the next ten turns or so. Save up a wad
of credits and offer each minor race the maximum you can give to get their
next level of diplomacy, i.e. friendship-affiliation-membership. You'll
end up getting just about everyone you asked, assuming you had about 3000
to start with, and the money you get from the trade routes or the new
minor race system from a new member will make the deficit in your empire
worth it.
Easy Money: If you are tired of running out of money, play as the Ferengi
and set up trade routes with every race you contact.
