Madison clearly stated once in the Union always in the Union. Unless a constitutional amendment allows withdrawal or expulsion a state has no power to withdraw. NO state act can supercede the Law of the Land. The states had committed themselves to a perpetual Union prior to the Constitution.
You can't even grasp what you quoted since it is NOT referring to the people of Virginia resuming powers but the people of the UNITED STATES.
It is hilarious that you even highlighted the phrase yet don't understand what you highlighted being so desparate to find some support for the Traitors' treason.
BTW welcome back.
I conclude, therefore, that every particle of authority which originally resided either in Congress, or in any branch of the state governments, was derived from the people who were permanent inhabitants of each province in the first instance, and afterwards became citizens of each state; that this authority was conveyed by each body politic separately, and not by all the people in the several provinces, or states, jointly, and of course, that no authority could be conveyed to the whole, but that which previously was possessed by the several parts; that the distinction between a state and the people of a state has in this respect no foundation, each expression in substance meaning the same thing.
Justice James Iredell, Penhallow v. Doane's Administrators, 3 Dall. 54, 94 (1795)
Thank you sir.
