One last time, courtesy of Dave Lykins:

Gene Autry’s Cowboy Code:

# The Cowboy must never shoot first, hit a smaller man, or take unfair advantage.

# He must never go back on his word, or a trust confided in him.

# He must always tell the truth.

# He must be gentle with children, the elderly, and animals.

# He must not advocate or possess racially or religiously intolerant ideas.

# He must help people in distress.

# He must be a good worker.

# He must keep himself clean in thought, speech, action, and personal habits.

# He must respect women, parents, and his nations laws.

# The Cowboy is a patriot.

Whoa, great question. I say YES. Who needs a cowboy hat when you can quote Jay-Z lyrics during a campaign speech?!?!

I’ll give any representative who doesn’t wear a bolo tie some credit, but is America ready for a President who’s never been photographed in a cowboy hat?

And Obama means no more dumb Western belts.
