The supremacy clause of the Constitution is another example of its primacy over all other law and authority.  Just as the Presidential Oath establishes the Constitution above the president, the supremacy clause places the Constitution above the states, their laws, and their judicial rulings so as to try to prevent a non-uniform mix of conflicting laws.
