Kermit Roosevelt, a professor at the University of Penn Law School, wrote in an e-mail that the Supremacy Clause in Article VI of the Constitution gives federal law power over state law.

The Founders, whose fathers and grandfathers were all too familiar with over reaching central government, would never have intended the above.
