Some powers are delegated to the feds, some to the states, but all are reserved to the people. --- And all such delegated powers are subject to amendment by the people. We the people, in effect, retain all such powers/rights, as they are inalienable. -- Liberties cannot be amended away. -- We are sovereign individuals, and our governments are not 'sovereign' over us.

You know what I meant. No, the state government is not sovereign over us. However, the people who formed the state goverment are sovereign over the area within the boundaries of the state and the National government is not.
