What you seem to use interchangeably is that you think the Constitution was first created with amendments. To help you out, they were called Articles.

After things were changed, they called the changes, "amendments".
Example:
The first amendment to the bill of rights; freedom of speech, assembly, religion, and press.

This was adopted in 1791.


Ever hear of something called, "Due Process"?


Your example is now null and void.
Clearly you were talking about the Articles of Confederation, since they predate the Constitution, not about the Constitution Articles. Last time just for you
