We're thinking about impeach a president via a recall.
When there's a strong satisfaction among citizens, the process can begin. Signatures representing x% of the population must be submitted via petition to the SCOTUS. After validation, there'll be a campaign of 8 weeks which ends with the referendum (tuesday).
If the 'yes' wins, the current government will be dissolved, after governors reunite to choose a National Transition council, which will rule the country until the inauguration of a new president.
The National Transition council has to have members from different parties.
The Chair man can be GOP and the Vice-Chairmain Democrat.

Discuss.

Utterly unworkable. To begin with, we don't really have national elections, but State elections which happen to include votes for the Federal offices of Representative, Senator, and Elector. Second, we already have a method for President sucession, so there's no need to invent a new method of what to do when a President is removed from office.
