Amen.
Plus, even if we're all still alive and not radioactive, there will be no elections in 2054... elections are every 4 years. There will be elections in 2052, and 2056.
By then, assuming no global nuclear holocaust, I do not believe we will have the same system in place as we do now. I believe that we will rely more on ourselves and will have a lot less governmental control. I think over the next few generations, people will begin to open their eyes and realize that "more government" is a VERY BAD idea, and that they should take care of the people, not tell them what to do. That is, after all, SUPPOSED TO BE their job now, but i'll be damned if I EVER see evidence of it in any elected offical I can think of.
Great thread idea, btw.
