    Default The "Missing" 13th Amendment, an odd Constitution story

    Did you know the 13th Amendment supplanted an original 13th Amendment already on the books? I am being completely serious for once, follow me below the fold:

    So what is in this mystery 13th Amendment:
    "If any citizen of the United States shall accept, claim, receive, or retain any title of nobility or honour, or shall without the consent of Congress, accept and retain any present, pension, office, or emolument of any kind whatever, from any emperor, king, prince, or foreign power, such person shall cease to be a citizen of the United States, and shall be incapable of holding any office of trust or profit under them, or either of them."


    So was it ratified or not? It seems to be more legal than the current one that was never properly ratified.

    Also this has never been struck down and therefore should still be in effect. If so what does that mean to Rudy? Rudolph Giuliani, Knight of the British Empire.
