Is the charge of a proton due to periodic pulsation of the surface of the proton?

No.
The charge of a proton (or an anti-proton) comes from the three quarks within it, quarks whose charge add up to plus one (or, in the case of anti-proton, minus one).
Which leads to the obvious question: where does the charge of the QUARKS come from? The answer is simple, but frustrating: in our Universe, charge just IS. Quarks and leptons have a quality we refer to as "charge," a quality that causes a force to exist between any two particles that both have charge. We have no further understanding beyond that: charge just exists.
Note, however, that, in any Universe that did not have charge, there would be no life noting that charge did not exist in that Universe -- which would make such a Universe a very un-interesting place.
