The stripes on the United States flag (13 in the current form), represent the original 13 founding colonies.

The choice of red, white, and blue for the US Flag seems to come from the Union Jack (the flag of the United Kingdom). As the original colonies were formerly British, using the flag of their former overlord as the basis for the new flag is a reasonable choice.
