“A 25-foot sand sculpture of President Barack Obama brings some of the beach to the Democratic National Convention’s host city. But landlocked Charlotte is nearly 200 miles from the ocean - and the sand is actually from a mine in South Carolina.”

SO... The sand isn’t from Myrtle Beach (implied by the ‘button’) , nor Charlotte, but is from a mine in SC ?

Very clever, this Larry Hudson.

Next thing we will find out is that the sand is tainted with chemicals caused by fracking.
