Metro, Weekend and Broadcast editors: Mayor Coble to honor Stephen Colbert on Horseshoe Native Son Stephen Colbert, who has declared his trans-party candidacy for president of the United States, will be honored Sunday (Oct. 28) by Mayor Bob Coble with the key to the city and a proclamation declaring him South Carolina’s favorite son. The event will take place at 9 a.m. on the university’s historic Horseshoe. Colbert, a Charleston native who hosts “The Colbert Report” on Comedy Central, announced earlier this month on his show that we was running for president and would campaign only in South Carolina. The announcement coincides with the publication of his book, “I Am America, and So Can You.” In his appearances and on his show, Colbert has talked up South Carolina, especially its barbecue and peaches.
