[extropy-chat] Question of Constitutional Law

[The Avantguardian]

I understand that the Constitution gives the President
the power to make treaties with senate approval. But
what I want to know is that if there is any explicit
law in the Constitution or elsewhere that prohibits
the governors of individual states from signing/making
treaties with foreign powers? As a completely
hypothetical example could Schwazeneggar sign the
Kyoto Treaty and have California abide by it? What
would be the consequences? Would the federal
government step in? Would it spark a civil war?
