One problem with your faulty logic. The powers were delegated BY THE CONSTITUTION. So therefore they could only be "undelegated" BY THE CONSTITUTION.

What do you mean? The Constitution is god, pre-existing, and that it delegated powers to the states? ROFTLM*O!!!!! The preamble states that the people of the several states 'do ordain and establish this Constitution'. The people of the respective states, in convention, ratified and delegated (not transferred permanently) powers to the new federal government.

A power-of-attorney delegates authority from an individual or corporation to an agent. The power-of-attorney cannot rescind or transfer power, it's simply a document. The rescinding/transferring is effected by the person/corporation delegating power to begin with.

For the sake of argument, where does it state that the Constitution undelegates powers? Per Amendment X, the powers 'not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.'

No the constitution is not god, it did not pre-exist, and it did not delegate anything to the states, but it did delegate certain powers to the Federal government, and it is the supreme law of the land, the laws and the constitutions of the states nonwithstanding. Once again words have meaning.

I put "undelegate" in paranthesis for a reason. Powers delegated by the Constitution can only be taken away by Constitutional amendment.

And not the 10th. The 10th isn't the "kings x" amendment that means the rest of the constitution is null and void because one state doesn't like something that the feds or another state does. Thats just a recipe for blackmail.
