That would be perfect for 51 stars.

Even more perfect would be the chagrin of the racists and other assorted assholes who don't even know that Puerto Ricans are US citizens by birth.

Morons abound!

Niiiice! It would be wonderful to add Puerto Rico as our 51st state! BlueCaliDem Nov 2012 #1

I'd love it if PR became a state in Obama's term. RichGirl Nov 2012 #5

I do too. calico1 Nov 2012 #8

Four million people in that little island. That would be more than a handful of House Seats. demosincebirth Nov 2012 #66

Repubs would block every move to achieve that. demosincebirth Nov 2012 #67

That is quite nice. brer cat Nov 2012 #2

The field of stars is round! The circle shape is clearly associated with the UN DisgustipatedinCA Nov 2012 #3

The FEMA camp signal has been given! Go go go! Dash87 Nov 2012 #14

What is the status of DC residents?? Angry Dragon Nov 2012 #4

DC has 3 electoral college votes. eqfan592 Nov 2012 #6

The same number as Alaska? Oh, that must really toast Caribou Barbie! Indpndnt Nov 2012 #21

If Wyoming has 2 senators D.C. should have two also. Plus two congressional seats. demosincebirth Nov 2012 #64

DC requires a constitutional amendment, which I'm fore. Peurto Rico does not. nt cecilfirefox Nov 2012 #63

thanks Angry Dragon Nov 2012 #68

Actually it doesn't. All they have to do is apply for statehood. Angleae Nov 2012 #77

Both are valid ways to admit DC. One way, however, can't be blocked by racists. Bucky Nov 2012 #78

Give it an election or two. Angleae Nov 2012 #80

I like it. K&R Egalitarian Thug Nov 2012 #7

I agree. A circle is better! loudsue Nov 2012 #18

Stars should be in a square just my opinion bkkyosemite Nov 2012 #9

Ooh, a star within a star. It can't be unseen. JaneyVee Nov 2012 #10

And A PEACE SYMBOL!!! loudsue Nov 2012 #58

A circle...the world...inclusive...non-linear...I like it libdem4life Nov 2012 #11

The flag is already cluttered enough. I like this one better: LeftinOH Nov 2012 #12

That looks so badass. Dash87 Nov 2012 #13

I don't mind adding PR or DC to the flag.... JohnnyRingo Nov 2012 #16

I like the circle better. loudsue Nov 2012 #19

And there's something like a peace symbol in it, but�. 12AngryBorneoWildmen Nov 2012 #53

Way cool. Baitball Blogger Nov 2012 #17

Adopting PR as the 51st state under Obama could establish the Democratic Party as ancianita Nov 2012 #20

Love the look of this flag..... a kennedy Nov 2012 #22

By my estimation, a state of Puerto Rico would get 7 electoral votes! reformist2 Nov 2012 #23

works for me. barbtries Nov 2012 #24

Oh that is a beaut Hayabusa Nov 2012 #25

Great Design! MineralMan Nov 2012 #26

I like it a lot! Arugula Latte Nov 2012 #27

what if we added DC at the same time? Motown_Johnny Nov 2012 #29

Also like the 5-pointed star within it...actually both linear and circular. libdem4life Nov 2012 #30

Me too! obamanut2012 Nov 2012 #37

I'm not so sure if I'm a fan of the circle. It's too hypnotic! Proles Nov 2012 #31

Now all I can see is triangles. Somehow too military for me. nolabear Nov 2012 #35

That one is military? The one in the OP is a diagram of The Pentagon ... muriel_volestrangler Nov 2012 #82

This flag looks great... MicaelS Nov 2012 #62

Well said! JNelson6563 Nov 2012 #72

FAR more beautiful. Symbolic one star made of many. The Baggers would go nuts, LOL! nolabear Nov 2012 #34

I hope Puerto Rico becomes a state, I believe the chances of that happening increased Uncle Joe Nov 2012 #36
