Sovereign means "a supreme ruler" when used as a noun. Synonyms are monarch, ruler, king, lord and potentate.

As an adjective, sovereign means "Possessing supreme or ultimate power:" Synonyms are paramount, supreme, independent.

With the above definitions in mind, individual citizens are not, nor can they be, sovereign. Some say the will of the people is sovereign, but actually, our Constitution is supposed to be supreme (sovereign) in the United States.

There are those; however, who believe otherwise.
