Recently I was at Epcot and went to the American Pavilion to watch the The American Adventure. On the way in you pass through the Hall of Flags which displays 44 historic flags that were made at one time or another. One in particular caught my eye which is the Moultrie Flag. It has an interesting backstory and is still an integral element of the flag of South Carolina. It's not a crescent moon in the upper-left on this flag or the flag of South Carolina, it represents a piece of armor worn around the neck called a gorget.
The word LIBERTY was inscribed on these gorgets by order of Colonel William Moultrie himself. The 2nd South Carolina Regiment had already engraved their gorgets with the words "Liberty or Death" which is what led to the flag's design.
To me this is the flag that best represents the Libertarian Party.

Would look better as a flag without the writing on it.
People will see it as a crescent and assume it’s connected to Islam.
You *won’t* overcome that.
