I thought there were 53 stars, one for each of the states that Obama visited.

Why exactly would it? The DHS is the epitome of Obama’s “...a civilian force, as equally well funded and equipped as the DoD [to do my bidding]...”

It protects and PROJECTS Obama. It has no allegiance to traditional America.

The ‘15’ error is a disgrace, but even more disgraceful is that during the ceremony, another 15 HUNDRED or so entered illegally.

Well at least they didn’t claim it was one crescent and one star.

” The problem is that the American Flag doesn’t have 15 stars and stripes; it has had 13 stripes since the Act of April 4, 1818,”

Well technically it did at one time have 15 stars and stripes before being reduced back to 13 stripes. So they do get partial credit.

Well, it did at one time have 15 stars and stripes. In fact the flag that flew over Fort McHenry to inspire Francis Scott Key to write the national anthem contained 15 stars and stripes. I believe that original flag is at one of the smithsonians...

It did at one time. They used to add a star and a stripe. However it was clear that would be unwieldy after a while.

Of course I doubt the idiot who wrote the release knew that.
