Good thing it's not an actual possibility then, since changing the US constitution would require a two-thirds majority (so to speak - technically it could be a much lower fraction of the population, but for practical purposes it's true enough).
Mind you, short of re-instituting slavery very few laws arise to the level of specifying the whole course of anyone's life. Democracy is a flawed system, to be sure - as any member of an unpopular minority can confirm. But we have yet to identify any reliably better alternative, and may never do so. After all, if there were sufficient agreement on how to identify good and wise candidates to be benign dictators, there'd be no need of their services.
