You need a party of some sort just to help you do the busy work of collecting the signatures needed to file to get on the ballot. You have to do this separately in each state. If you are rich enough you can hire people to be your party.
If you want to run without any chance to win , you can conduct a write-in campaign-- just ask people to write your name in.

When can a vice president run for office?
A candidate for vice president of the U.S. does not run separately. The VP candidate is selected as a running mate by the candidate for president, and they run as a team. Back in the beginning, they did run separately: the person with the most votes was president, and the one with the second most was vice president. That system didn't last very long; rivals who'd fought for election didn't usually team up too well. (But it could happen within a party!) A VP can run for president later if the person's party selects him or her as the candidate or if the person decides to run independently.
Can another democrat run against the existing democratic president?
A Democrat could run for the Democratic nomination against an incumbent Democratic President. This happened in 1980 , for example, when Ted Kennedy ran against President Carter. A democrat would not run on the same party lines as another Democrat since the Democratic party can only nominate one candidate themselves. So a third party could nominate a Democrat to run for president if that Democrat lost the Democratic nomination to someone else.
