Columbia SC's The State endorses Clinton, 1st Dem nominee they've endorsed since Carter in 1976
http://www.thestate.com/opinion/editorials/article111181492.htmlColumbia, SC
WE UNDERSTAND WHY so many South Carolinians are angry about a gridlocked federal government that is unable or unwilling to address the serious problems confronting our country.

The Republican nominee for president could have been an intriguing option. Donald Trump’s resume describes a successful businessman with no ties to the political “establishment.” He claims his business success proves he can negotiate, get things done, and better position America in the world.

Whatever intrigue his business resume generates is overshadowed by his character and personality. He is simply unfit for the presidency, or any public office.

In this era of voter discontent, Americans want change. But we must consider carefully what will change and who will lead it. Of the two candidates, the choice is clear. Mrs. Clinton’s experience, stability and knowledge make her more likely than Mr. Trump to effectively tackle the nation’s problems.

Great endorsement from the second largest paper in South Carolina.
