[QUOTE="dutchwrangler, post: 2064218, member: 4650"] Late last night I sent the following email to my state senator (Holt) and representative (Echols). Because it was late and I'd had a long day some of the syntax wasn't quite what it should've been. My bad... His response... As for the Supremacy Clause: The bold words in red above are the key to understanding this clause. What it means is that only laws that are made in accord with the enumerated powers of Article 1, Section 8 are supreme. Any law that is not made in "pursuance thereof" of those specific, listed, enumerated powers are null and void as per the 9th & 10th Amendments. The ratifying debates of the original states bear this fact out. Too many of you take what you hear for gospel and believe the SCOTUS has the final say. It doesn't. It only has jurisdiction on those powers enumerated. The Kentucky and Virginia Resolution by Jefferson and Madison state that it is the States that have the final say on matters as it was the States that created the central government. But I digress. Most folks are unwilling to educate themselves and take to heart what others tell them, even if that information is incorrect. I said it before... the US Constitution is dead. You're all witnessing the inevitable rot of it's decay. Unfortunate but this is the new reality. [/QUOTE]
