There ought to be something like "the President can't be recalled within XX months/years of the regular election". Otherwise you'd probably always have Democratic state legislatures immediately demanding the recall of a Republican President who was elected yesterday. It can't be that great, for example, for USA to have Bush win by one state in 2004, and immediately 24 states (or however many are Democratically controlled) pass bills demanding his recall. If the vote were as close as it were in 2004 (or '00) you might even end up with a recall vote demand by 34 states (if their legislatures are Democratically controlled) immediately. We'd be in a perpetual state of recall vote, which doesn't sound like the best idea.

Maybe the Prez gets 18 months in office before states can start demanding his ouster?
