What are the legal or other implications (fund raising?) of declaring or not declaring you are a candidate for your party's candidate for the POTUS?

Awkward sentence but couldn't think of another way to say it.

I was thinking of the Sarah Palin bus tour.

The big issue is fund raising. People don't declare in order to gain money without having to report it the same way. Basically you're not under the same legal restrictions for fund raising as a candidate.

Why declare at all then - why not wait 'til the last possible moment?
- Brian Sullivan
If you don't declare, it will make it pretty hard to do fundraising. No grass roots orgs would take you seriously.

I guess -- unless you are Sarah Palin?

There are always exceptions to a rule, heh.
