Exactly, WB - there have only been 26 amendments, and none since 1971. Two amendments cancel each other out (passage and overturning of prohibition), so that leaves 24. There were 10 with the original document, leaving 14. 14 amendments over 217 or so years is not a bad rate.

The amendment process should be difficult.
