Poll
Question: How long do you expect the United States to last?
#1
Were getting close to the end.
 
#2
We're not close yet, but if you are a young man/woman, you might see it in the twilight of your life.
 
#3
We have more than a good century left. After which, it gets REALLY blurry. Think the British Empire.
 
#4
We'll be around for a few centuries, I just think our country will eventually get tired of its self after that. Think Rome.
 
#5
America is destined to be the next Chinese civilization, that will last thousands of years, with or without disruption.
 
#6
Other, explain.

As a superpower?  Perhaps until the middle of this century.

As a republic? We have a long ways to go, barring a combination of catastrophic natural disasters (Yellowstone Caldera eruption + asteroids hitting Earth + devastating plagues) and another world war. 

America has plenty of life left in it.  We can last as long as the Roman Empire did, if not longer.
