Stars & Stripes Forever

Greetings, My Fellow Americans. Be ye Red, Yellow, Black, Brown, or White, or a mixture thereof, if you were born here, you are an AMERICAN! If you applied for and received citizenship, you are an AMERICAN! We all are hyphenated in one way or another, be ye Irish-American, such as myself, English-American, as my wife, Mexican-American, or Greek-American, African-American or Native-American, Indian-American or Chinese-American, German-American or Russian-American, Brazilian-American or Japanese-American, Canadian-American or Dutch-American, Ukrainian-American or Scotch-American, Argentine-American or Tibetan-American. We are ALL AMERICANS under the same Red, White, and Blue, Stars & Striped Flag!
Now, I do have a proposition. The meaning of the colors of the Flag has long since been lost on the majority of Americans. I could look it up, but what's the point? Here's my idea. Let us give new meaning to the colors, something that We, the People, would never forget. A fresh, new National Emblem, the Flag, would give all America a boost in these troubled, divided times. I think it's time to mend some fences, get our backyard in order (while keeping an eye on those cockroach terrorists!) and show the world how it's done! They all gripe about the US policies, and yet they seem to all want to come over here and live. What's up with that? My guess is that their nations suck!
Back to my New Flag Idea:
RED: would represent the nomadic Native peoples of this North American continent, including the Hispanic populations, that inhabited the lands long before a Free America was even a dream.
WHITE: would represent the European peoples that traveled to and settled the Eastern coast of North America, before driving across the continent in search of individual hopes, dreams, and lives.
These two Colors as Stripes: representing the battles waged over decades for the land until peace was finally forged.
BLACK: replacing the field of Blue, a Field of Black would represent the fields the Africans were brought over and forced to work, and then freed from, to live in America with hope they would never have dreamed of before.
YELLOW: replacing White stars, 50 Yellow Stars would represent the roll the Asian immigrants to America have had in influencing our culture, making it unique in every way from our individual roots.
I believe that with a National Flag such as this, representing all of the peoples of our Homeland through the very basics of Color, would instill a pride in Nation no other National Emblem could, or ever has in the history of man, for this would truly be OUR Nation displayed at the top of every flagpole, every man, woman, and child of every race displayed for all the world to see!
I hope all of you out there can see what I see in this idea of mine. Change can be good, when done for the right reasons. Maybe now this country is ready for a little change to make a big statement. Not only to the world, but for ourselves.
