Only for lower courts, I am not sure about the supreme court.
I think some of the higher court justices should have a system of a “vote of no confidence” where if 66% of the population voates agaisnt them they get thrown out.
Think of it as a judicial “veto”.

I'd like to think we could tweak what "good behaviour" might mean. The constitution seems to be leaving an opening for the impeachment of Supreme Court Judges:
Article III.
Section. 1.
The judicial Power of the United States shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour, and shall, at stated Times, receive for their Services a Compensation, which shall not be diminished during their Continuance in Office.
The “population” that elected Obama?
