You must file separately in each state. Contact the Secretary of State in every jurisdiction to get their requirements.
Unless you get a major party endorsement, you will probably have to get signatures on petitions in every state.
That should keep you busy for a while.

you need to be with a political party and go through them to be on the ballot. otherwise, you have to collect a certain amount of signatures in each state to get on that state's ballot.
