Hate to pop your bubble, but in law; constitution(s) {State & Federal} are to be given equal station, i.e., one is not more superior / important, because of it’s place / location in said constitution(s).

Absolutely false:

The Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution (Article VI, Clause 2) establishes that the Constitution, federal laws made pursuant to it and treaties made under its authority, constitute the supreme law of the land.[1] It provides that state courts are bound by the supreme law; in case of conflict between federal and state law, the federal law must be applied. Even state constitutions are subordinate to federal law.[2] The federal government possesses only the supreme authority accorded it by the Constitution. The scope of this authority is very broad, as the federal government is tasked with providing for the general welfare of the United States.

Research the Supremacy Clause, the Constitution is the Supreme Law of the land, period.
