suggestion for the UN

I am throwing out a suggestion for the UN.  It involves a bicamberal assembly.  The upper chamber can be modeled after the US Congress.  The upper house can be like the US Senate, with the representatives in that house appointed by the heads of the countries that are members.  The lower house can be like the House of Representatives, with for example, each state in the USA, by popular election for a 2 year term, elects one member of the lower house.  Maybe the change would make the UN more democratic.  Each nation remains totally independent.
