I like this. It brings the historical argument front and center. It is the united states, not the United States. The Constitution is a pact between 50 separate governments on how to act with each other. It is not FedGov which oversees its 50 little territories.
The supremacy clause has been abused by those who think this is a federal democracy. It is not and was not ever intended to be.
A bigger fix would be repealing the 17th Amendment swinging the pendulum of power back toward the states.

Agreed, but as far as the Utah Legislature and Governor Cox, it might just be kabuki theater.
