Yes, a former US president can run for Senate if they meet the eligibility requirements, such as being a US citizen and meeting the age and residency requirements outlined in the Constitution.
Congress would provide what identification would be required if any questions were raised. Requirements to run for Senate probably varies by state.
Oh, dude, John Quincy can totally run for Congress if he wants! Since he's been a US citizen for 8 years and he's 27, he meets the age and citizenship requirements. His options are basically to throw his hat in the ring and see if he can win over the voters. Like, go for it, John!
To be eligible to run for the United States senate, you have to be 30 years old, a U.S. citizen for nine years, and residents of the state they're running in.

Someday I would like to run for state senate.
The vice president does not "run" the senate. However he is the president of the senate and can vote, if the senate vote is tied. In a way the senate majority leader can control the senate in that all bills can only reach the floor to be debated and voted on if he or she says so. Harry Reid, a democrat, now "controls" the senate

The Three requirements one must meet before becoming a member of the Senate are one you have to be at least 30 years old. Second, a U.S. citizen for at least nine years at the time of election to the Senate. And third, a resident of the state one is elected to represent in the Senate.
The Vice President's power over the senate is only to break a tie and to run the senate meeting.
