If I had to pick a favorite Amendment, it would be the 14th.

yes, it's a shame they had to spell out what had already been clearly set forth in the declaration:'
"we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness..."
That's because the Declaration of Independence does not have the force of Law. The 14th IS, in many ways, possibly the most important amendment.
Naturally, it's the one that ReThugs want to change--Lindsey "Flip-Flop" Graham was looking at repealing it years ago, when Trump was still just a bad, dirty joke.
