Constitution vs. Federal Law

We as a nation are being presented with a very interesting debate in front of us and I am worried we are squandering it.  We should have this debate and find out what we are made of.  I am talking about the Edward Snowden dilemma between constitutional law and federal/national law. Daniel Ellsberg explained this best to me in an interview he did where he essentially said that, yes, Snowden broke the law but he did so in the service of the constitution whose 4th amendment he saw being broken.

Constitution or federal law?

And, can we not only get a debate on this please but have our Supreme Court weigh in on this as well?  This seems very important and has many layers.  Get to work.
