"Article III, Sec. 2, clause 2 says:
"In all Cases ... and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction..."

If so, and not subject to further interpretation in court cases brought before the supreme court, it seems there is quite a bit of ignoring the constitution through at least two administrations.
The 11th amendment has some bearing on Art. III, but my eyes got to glazing over - I believe that it gave states immunity from being sued, but further decisions allowed individual state office holders to be sued.
The 11th amendment came about in response to a previous abuse by the Supreme Court of the time.
