I was pondering this and cannot come up with any way to do it, within the guidelines of our US Constitution.
Is it possible to force a special election for president, before the next one scheduled on Nov 8, 2016?
No, but impeachment is an option.
Why not read the Constitution for yourself? You would find that the answer to that is ‘no’.
OK...
Possibly, but trying to do so will only prove you’re a racist sexist homophobe.
That doesn't advance the election.
That’s right.
Who are you in such a hurry to elect that you can’t be bothered to read the Constitution?
Have you thought about secession?
Why advance it? It’s very entertaining watching this President slowly become irrelevant and being seen for what he really is. It’s also fun watching the GOPe implode and the Dems “out left” each other.
We don’t have a parliamentary form of government.
Doesn't that kind of make your comment sound a bit stupid? It sure does to me. Try reading, comprehending, and then commenting.
I didn’t post it as breaking news, what a waste of time.

After enduring would-be dictator caliph 0bama, I have come to the conclusion that we need to reexamine the principle of "Checks and Balances". With a weak congress and a corrupt court, it has failed miserably. It needs to be strengthened somehow.
We also need to look at the 25th Amendment. Who thinks the cabinet of puppets that the 0bama regime has assembled would ever vote that their "demigod" 0bama was incapable of discharging the duties? European governments already believe that he is unbalanced, but absolutely no one on this side of The Atlantic has even broached the subject; - it's not politically correct.
Convention of states.
How about we just storm the palace as they do in other countries?
“Convention of states.”
This is actually the correct answer. But unlikely to happen.
I agree, but that is a VERY slow process and appears to be susceptible to the whims and interpretation of bureaucrats. There has been a movement and a number of state legislatures have passed measures, but some have afterwards rescinded them, and others later said that it was for only one narrow specific purpose. There was a flurry of activity about a year ago, but I haven't seen or heard anything recently.
