State government can decide whether or not they wish to obey all or part of the u.s. constitiution ?

Question

they gave me a book but it's really nothing but it's to understand it because am a very solw kid please help me ?

Answer 1

No, states are not allowed to ignore any part of the Constitution.  The Constitution contains something called The Supremacy Clause which states that it, and all law passed consistent with it, are the supreme law of the  land, and any state laws to the contrary are invalid.

Answer 2

False. The 14th amendment requires the states to uphold the constitution and all the right and restrictions guaranteed within. Similarly, the Supremacy clause makes the states subordinate to federal and constitutional law. Both of theses constitutional provisions were ratified by the states and all states are bound by them.

However, the 10th amendment reserves for the states any powers not granted to the federal government by the constitution. There is an "Elastic Clause", though, which give very broad powers to the federal government.

Answer 3

They cannot decide. Originally this was not clear, but through the process of incorporation the courts have brought states under the obligations of the Constitution through the 14th Amendment's due process clause.

Answer 4

That is about right.

The federal government is all powerful.

What we think is good for us, or what we want if the feds don't think it is good idea for us then it will not be what happens.....

No matter how many states want it....

It goes down hill from there, if the state feels it is not good for us then your district will not ok it.....easier to change state law then federal law! But state will roll over for the feds!
