“It would be manifestly contrary to the objectives of those who created the Constitution, let alone alien to our Constitutional history and tradition to construe Article VI (the Supremacy Clause) as permitting the United States to exercise power under an international agreement, without observing Constitutional prohibitions.? In effect such construction would permit amendment of that document in a manner not sanctioned by Article V.” – Reid v. Covert, (1957), 354 U.S. 1

What comes first, a constitution or a treaty?

IDK but........

The following qualifies as one of the greatest lies the globalists continue to push upon the American people. That lie is: "Treaties supersede the U.S. Constitution".

The Second follow-up lie is this one: "A treaty, once passed, cannot be set aside".

HERE ARE THE CLEAR IRREFUTABLE FACTS: The U.S. Supreme Court has made it very clear that

1) Treaties do not override the U.S. Constitution.
2) Treaties cannot amend the Constitution. And last,

3) A treaty can be nullified by a statute passed by the U.S. Congress (or by a sovereign State or States if Congress refuses to do so), when the State deems a treaty the performance of a treaty is self-destructive. The law of self-preservation overrules the law of obligation in others. When you've read this thoroughly, hopefully, you will never again sit quietly by when someone -- anyone -- claims that treaties supercede the Constitution. Help to dispell this myth. http://www.sweetliberty.org/issues/staterights/treaties.htm

With that said who wants to amend the Constitution (https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=who+wants+to+Amend+the+Constitution)

Beware however when they legislate for the territories and try to sell it off as binding upon the organic states--this is also why refusal (evidencing non-assent) of something published in the Federal Register might be of import.

Constitutions, themselves, are treaties.

Its all international law. Think of a state constitution as a treaty amongst its participating members, published, and given notice to the public.

And all international law is law for legal fictions. Something to keep at the forefront of one's thinking.
