To: I'm ALL Right!

There are already several designs. One is in my profile. It is not my favorite, though.

To: cll; I'm ALL Right!

The 51-star flag does not look as nice as the 50-star flag (or the 48- or 49-star flags). But we wouldn't need a 51-star flag if we go straight to 52 by also admitting a "State of New Columbia" comprising Washington, DC and its close-in suburbs in Maryland and Virginia. Admitting New Columbia as a state would enfranchise the residents of DC while simultaneously making Virginia an overwhelmingly Republican state and making Maryland a GOP-leaning state. See http://auh2orepublican.blogspot.com/2005/08/fair-and-reasonable-alternative-to-dc.html

A 52 stars on the flag would be in 4 rows of 7 and 4 rows of 6, and would look like this:

* * * * * * *
* * * * * *
* * * * * * *
* * * * * *
* * * * * * *
* * * * * *
* * * * * * *
* * * * * *

Whis is not all that different from the 50-star flag:

* * * * * *
* * * * *
* * * * * *
* * * * *
* * * * * *
* * * * *
* * * * * *
* * * * *
* * * * * *
