This means that the laws set forth in the United States Constitution are superior to any laws set by individual states. C. This means that the United States Constitution is more powerful than any other country's constitution. D.

Respuesta :

B.
No one,
in this country,
is above the law of the U.S. Constitution.
Not even the president.

The correct answer is B.

The Constitution is an employment contract between an employer, the American people, and their agents, government employees.

The Constitution as the contract outlines what citizens are allowed to do and what not. This is called the Supremacy Clause, meaning, there is no greater power than the Constitution and the constitutional laws are above any others.

The Constitution determines which law is valid and which not, it also specifies how political power is organized and exercised. Without Constitution, different laws would incorporate different values and purposes that might contradict each other.
