The People Ought to Have the Ability to Recall Elections

"Pro believes that a recall of election is a form of direct democracy, however we in the United States do not have a direct democracy system."There is an issue with this objection with which I have:- This is a strawman, while it is true we do not have direct democracy in the US, it does not mean we cannot have a form of it. This is not a pure direct democracy, it is simply a function of a democracy period. Other countries (such as Canada, and some States in the US) already have this. Ideally, we want it in the federal government as well!"Also we have the power to vote the president out of office every four years, representatives every two years, and senators every six years."-Yes, I did state that our federal representitives last a long time in office; this seems to be more of an argument for recall elections than not, I already noted this, it would keep politicans accountable, because really, only the last year in their political lives matter more than anything, but that leaves said politician ample time to do dammage to the US. Which is why we need recall elections. "The United States is deeply divided on every major issue. If we allowed this every time a state or group did not get there way they would just try to throw out the president. this would lead to very inefficient government that would not be able to get anything done."- Recall in my previous argument, that all democracies with this in place have not noticed an abuse of the system of recall elecitons. This is simply a bare assertion fallacy, we are not talking about booting a politican out for every stand on his position as my opponent seems to think, but rather, on a major scandal with which said major politician was involved in!"Politicians would worry more about getting kicked out of office than the issues, they would not want to make anyone angry and loose their jobs."- (See above) Also, shouldn't politicians be afraid of their people and not the other way around? Again, this is an argument supporting the notion not against it, it furthers accountability in office. "Texas wanted to succeed just because Obama gained a second term. Americans are privileged with the right to vote, a free vote, and a fair vote. This happens on a regular basis and if you have issues with a politician use your power at the polls. Also any major issues will lead to an impeachment or resignation of said official, so the only thing this resolution would do is create an ineffective American system.This legislation is not needed and will only hurt America" - Firstly, Texas' seperation would be considered unconstitutional, which is a whole other issue entirely. We are not talking about a state trying to seperate from the US, but if a politician ought to be pulle dout of office if the people demand it. -Secondly, I already noted that certain people specifically vote against a poltiican they do not like, so why not have recall elections to voice their issues with said politician? This is again an argument for recall elections not against it.-Finally, those processes of impeachment are done on partisan lines. For instance, Clinton was indeed guilty, but didn't get impeached because the 2/3rds necessary to impeach him couldn't have been reached, his own democrats protected him, and I alreadyanswered this. This is a conflict of interest! It should be the people deciding objectively outside partisan lines who they want to represent them, not other politicians! My opponent has literally done nothing to take down the resolution. The resolution is affirmed, and my opponent affirmed it himself. Thank you! Impose recall elections!
