you wouldn't be able to impeach them both at once. So IF you were able to impeach Bush, you'd have Cheney as president until he got a new VP nominated. Then, if you impeached Cheney, the newly nominated VP would become Pres. I'm not sure about you, but I don't want someone as president who was elected via the congress.

The part that i've bolded is where you're going to run in to constituent problems. People don't take to change easily, especially forced change. You'll end up with more resentment than anything.

I think you'd end up with pretty much the same violent society you have now. The only thing that would change is the targets.
