Interesting note: Estonia has a national ID card which ties into an OpenID provider. Theoretically could be a framework for e-voting in America, and since OpenID is not centralized, you could have an OpenID for your state, local, work, etc identifications. No need for a national ID card for OpenID to allow real-world trust mechanisms to tie into online services.
Also, if no one realized it, Yahoo! already does alot of OpenID.
