Answer:
ok so the first one is the supremacy clause (that's not all of article 6, it says more about states rights). it means that any laws on the national level trump the ones on the state level.
the second one is the 10th amendment, which says that states can do whatever isn't prohibited by the constitution (and other amendments), not just what is specifically said they can do.
this basically shows the power balance between the national government and states government. the national government is always supreme over state governments, but state governments still do stuff. that's what federalism is.
The main point of this excerpt is that African-Americans were not considered US citizens.
In the Supreme Court case Dred Scott vs. Sandford, Scott is suing for his freedom from slavery. This is because his master brought him to the Wisconsin territory, a territory where slavery was outlawed.
However, the Supreme Court ruled against him. The reason why they ruled against him is based on the excerpt above. The Declaration of Independence did not make it blatantly clear that slaves were considered citizens. Since they were not considered citizens, they had no legal rights that slave owners had to respect.
