[QUOTE="Koshinn, post: 1547660, member: 18314"] [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reid_v._Covert[/url] Reid v. Covert, 354 U.S. 1 (1957), is a landmark case in which the United States Supreme Court ruled that the Constitution supersedes international treaties ratified by the United States Senate. According to the decision, "this Court has regularly and uniformly recognized the supremacy of the Constitution over a treaty," although the case itself was with regard to an executive agreement and the treaty has never been ruled unconstitutional. Even if such a treaty were passed by 2/3 vote in the Senate, it would probably be unconstitutional and therefore invalid. [/QUOTE]
