While the flag has changed over time, the meaning of the flag has not. The stars represent the states so it only makes sense that as states are added so are stars to represent those states. The 13 stripes representing the 13 colonies have not changed nor have the red, white, and blue colors. The meaning of the flag has not changed.
Macy Gray needs to study her history a bit more. If she wants more stars on the flag then she should make an argument for at least 56 and rather than 52. Better yet, she should acknowledge the limits of her knowledge and do more research before embarrassing herself.
