Barack Obama currently fares as well against a generic opponent in the upcoming presidential election as George W. Bush did in April 2003, a time when Bush’s job approval rating was much higher than Obama’s is today. He also tests considerably better than Bill Clinton did in March 1995. Nearly half (47%) of registered voters say they would like to see Barack Obama reelected, while 37% say they would prefer to see a Republican candidate win the 2012 election, according to the survey by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press conducted March 8-14 among 1,525 adults. In April 2003, 48% of registered voters said they would like to see Bush reelected in 2004; 34% said they would prefer to see a Democrat win.

How about forcing every single politcian that has lied to step down? Getting rid of one won't do a thing, get rid of them all and let the new ones know it will happen to them if they try the same things.
It amazes me that people think taking one brick out of a pyramid would make it collapse.

Sorry to point out the obvious, but the answer to the OPs question is a resounding NO.
By constitution, our republican form of government allows only our elected representatives to remove the President. Of course, our elected representatives are US Citizens so technically the answer could be "Yes" - but only if limited to the small group of citizens known as "Congressmen".
BUT wouldn't it be grand if WE could demand it with some real clout. Doubtful I will live that long.

You are confusing a couple of things, it seems to me.

Ok, so what you're saying is that if the citizens tell their Congress reps that they want the President to step down and Congress decides wants him to stay, he stays?

No but if you get rid of the block at the top it stops looking like a pyramid right?
