The Lone Ranger Creed

Was DNCC spokeswoman Natalie Wyeth having something else in mind...? mmm...
Why is it that the Lone Blogger reminds me of the Lone Ranger?
Let´s see...

In every incarnation of the character, the Lone Ranger has conducted himself by a strict moral code. This code was put in place by writer Fran Striker and actors Clayton Moore and Jay Silverheels, taking their positions as role models to children very seriously (I was one of them) also tried their best to live by this creed:

"I believe.....
That to have a friend, a man must be one.
That all men are created equal and that everyone has within himself the power to make this a better world.
That God put the firewood there, but that every man must gather and light it himself.
In being prepared physically, mentally, and morally to fight when necessary for that which is right.
That a man should make the most of what equipment he has.
That 'this government of the people, by the people, and for the people' shall live always.
That men should live by the rule of what is best for the greatest number.
That sooner or later...somewhere...somehow...we must settle with the world and make payment for what we have taken.
That all things change but truth, and that truth alone, lives on forever.
In my Creator, my country, my fellow man."


So?

From very down-South in the planet, from the Pampas gaucho-land, from Democrats Abroad Argentina, the Lone Blogger YanquiMike was chosen to be the eyes and ears of local audiences online around the world.

The Lone Blogger is going to the 2008 Democrats Convention to blog for the worldwide
community
of US Democrats living abroad.

YM says: "... and I guarantee you that if I have something to say from the floor, I will say it."

LR says: "... all things change but truth, and truth alone, lives on forever."

Ok.

Now I see why YanquiMike reminds me of the Lone Ranger.

Except that h
e´s not alone; members in 164 countries, with 37 official country committees in the Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Oceania are going to be able to feedback comments and thoughts through his blog online and while things happen at the floor.

Me too!



Sorry, Lone Ranger, I´m madly in love with somebody else now... things change... you know... as you said...

Companheiro explorador de confiança, kemosabe GMG,

O Lone Blogger não é cowboy. Ele é yanqui mais também gaúcho e o que ele usa é boina argentina... como as de gauchoclothes

E eu também!
Mais não gostaría voce me chamar de "Tonto". Não é porque não o seja um pouquinho, é só que prefiro a tradução ao espanhol que fizerem-lhe a serie aqui: "Toro"... ou "Vaca" no meu caso ;-)

Chau!
