     He wants to pick a new flag.  He is going to look at everybody's flag.

     Do your best and create the best flag that the United States has ever seen.  To help you create a great flag, the President has asked Betsy Ross, the lady that made the official flag, to help give you some ideas.  Have a good time creating and good luck.
