Well, my dear, the American flag's basic design has been around since the late 1700s. I think it would be nearly impossible to change it now after all these years, but I want to thank you that you are on a quest for knowledge! It really inspires me and I think I will write a long and emotional book about my feelings. This should cause your heart to swell with pride.

No, it is not. The First Amendment to the US Constitution guarantees freedom of political expression, even if many people find the expression deeply distasteful.
