I think that governors and presidents alike shouldn't have direct veto power. Their job is to enact the will of congress and the people.

If veto is retained in a future America, I suggest the following:

• 1: The leader nominates an congressionally approved law for being vetoed.

• 2: A 30 day window opens, where voters can send in a ballot to approve the veto. 51% of the ballots have to agree with the veto to cancel the incoming law.

• 3: Voters can mark on their ballot whether to automatically prevent the leader from being able to nominate laws for veto. If 51% of the cast ballots agree to lame the leader, that leader loses veto power for the rest of their term.

• 4: If a lamed leader is voted into office for another term, a ballot is sent out to voters. They will decide whether to restore veto powers to that leader. 51% of cast ballots have to agree to do the restoration.

A leader has to risk losing their veto privilege when exercising it, especially if it becomes a cudgel of choice for them.
