If you want something that represents George Washington and company, great men that they were, you might consider forever parting with a flag owned by the enemy, as they did. |

Here's another WFP flag design found at the Phora.
Here's the description: "This next White Freedom Party flag is intended to be envioronmentally friendly, with its stylized tree symbolizing fresh new growth. The tree also suggests that the WFP itself is a growing entity, rising from the rich blue and gray soil beneath it, the colors representing the Union and Confederate forces of the US Civil War, of course. Now, however, these same two colors have united in a common goal, coming together as one to nourish the green tree of a new, reborn white America." |

ohgolly, that was gentle and diplomatic. As well as a good observation. Betsy Ross: I prefer the one without stars. Radical, yes. But to the right degree. The flag is no time to adopt half measures.
Any design will bring calls for an explanation. Might as well smash destructive myths at that point, by way of education.

Use 'old glory' for all she's worth. As for a party flag, this one is simple, symbolic and easy to identify:

A nearly all-black flag looks to me more like something that these guys would fly....
But this one looks the best I've seen so far...not to "Nazi" and not too vague. |

Just noticed how appropriate the term "old glory" is.

History Also known as the Continental flag, it is the first true U.S. Flag. It combined the British King's Colours and the thirteen stripes signifying Colonial unity. George Washington liked this design so well that he chose it to be flown to celebrate the formation of the Continental Army on New Years Day, 1776. On that day the Grand Union Flag was proudly raised on Prospect Hill in Somerville, near his headquarters at Cambridge, Massachusetts. |
