In the judicial system it is the SCOTUS that is the final word on the US Constitution. That should not have to be spelled out.
It does not have to be spelled out to me. SCOTUS has the final word, but that does not mean other courts can not interpret the US Constitution.. They can and they do... so your point is what? That you believe in addition to the admitted fact that SCOTUS has the final word on the US Constitution, that they are the only court who can make rulings on the US Constitution? If so, you are clearly wrong.
Just like you are wrong about the 3/5ths clause...![]()
In was wrong about the 3/5 clause? Where?

Do state courts get to interpret the US Constitution?
Follow the post with the timeline. Dante posted about the US Constitution. He linked to a Wikipedia page on slavery cases before courts in America, assuming great minds like yours would look at the federal cases. It may have been too big an assumption, but giving you the benefit of the doubt is evidently a great failing of Dante's.
