Otherwise it just looks like the usual US flag stuff.
Of course, I do have a tie tack in the shape of Texas, so maybe that would set it off.
The first thing I thought of was an election, not Texas. Perhaps it needed a larger star? Example, from one of Texas best:
"I can draw a mouse with a pencil, but I can't draw a pencil with a mouse"
