Richard Wilkerson, the former chairman and president of Michelins operations in North America, said he has known Harrison for years and is confident he can bring lasting economic opportunity to the people of South Carolina.

(12,811 posts)...that should be the South Carolina Democratic Party's main focus. And really, it should be their only focus.
