The American Flag could be considered a symbol because of what it inspires us as Americans to do. For example, it could make people believe that the flag is of such importance that everyone should cherish and worship it. Also it could be a symbol because it is so meaningful to all Americans ( hopefully).
The American Flag can be a symbol for many different qualities. To me it is a symbol of freedom, because we claimed ourselves a free nation. Great Britain fought us for it during the American Revolution, and we won, thus making the flag symbolic to me.
