FLORENCE, S.C. - Jon Huntsman made a campaign stop in the Pee Dee Saturday afternoon.

Huntsman talked with people at Roger's Barbecue in Florence. He told the crowd we're living in a country of diminished trust in our nations leaders.

Huntsman says we have a President who can't lead and a Congress who can't balance the budget.

Some at the restaurant say they're impressed by him, but aren't sold just yet.

"I think everything that he said is what we're looking for for a president but the thing of it is it sounds great now but what is he gonna do when he get in office," said Shirley Holmes.

Huntsman also sat down one one with people and asked them what was their most pressing issue with this country. Most of them said we need more jobs.
