Just a thought: Up until 1920 when the 19th amendment was
radified, women could not even vote. The rights stated in
the Constitution DID NOT and WAS NOT MEANT to apply to ALL.
That's all I will say on this subject.

Just sent some info to the list. :-) You are right that
these amendments did
exist, but note the language, CITIZENS, and just who were
the citizens? White
people who had some rights, no blacks, mulattoes, FPC, etc.
You are on the
right track, check amendment Article XV. You are just
looking at WHITE
citizens, not others.
