FORMER Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee stands out from other candidates for the Republican presidential nomination for reasons apart from his Christian social conservatism.
How many reasons? Somewhere between 190 million and 250 million. That is the dollar amount by which his personal wealth is estimated to trail that of the man he has challenged for the title of front-runner, Mitt Romney. A rarity among the major candidates for the White House, Mr Huckabee has personal assets total something less than $US1 million ($A1.13 million). On this point he shares something in common with Democratic contender Barack Obama, whose personal assets are similarly modest — last reported to be somewhere between $450,000 and $1.1 million.
