We already have one. It's called the European Parliament.

The problem in all this, as I'm pointed out several times, is assuming
that government will represent their countries better than MEPs.
Bullshit. I'm opposed to the Portuguese government in almost everything
I can think of. I didn't vote for them. In most matters, I'm actually
better represented in the Council by the Belgian government, whom I
couldn't vote for. 
The thought that the Portuguese government, which I didn't vote for, and
not the MEPs which I did voted for, represents me, would be totally
laughable if it wasn't serious. I haven't the slighest interest in
expanding the voting power of the current Portuguese government in
European matters. I'd rather expand the power of Portuguese MEPs.
