Can you tell me what is required to become a US senator?
user
I can try to tell you the details. I’m not aware of every requirement, but here are the basics:

The candidate must be a US citizen who’s 30 or older. They can’t have been convicted of a crime or have an active case in court, and they must be able to meet the ethical standards for office.

Okay thanks. Are there any exceptions for the citizenship requirement?

I’m not aware of any, but I’d like to give you a chance to explain why it might be important for this question to be answered.
assistant
Okay thanks. Do they need a certain amount of primary votes to run?
user
Not a specific amount, but they have to get at least one percent of the votes in a primary.

Primaries are “party-based” in the US, so the party leader decides who can participate.  Only the party leader can make that decision, and it’s up to the party leader to let you participate.
