    I want to start going around invoking amendments that are never described as being invoked. Like instead of the 5th or the 25th, I want to invoke the 23rd amendment or the 27th amendment.

        The Third Amendment has to be the most successful of all the Bill of Rights. Very few troops have been quartered since enacted. Good job.

        I mean, the 21st is keeping me going these days and I invoke my rights under it regularly. But you’d think more people would be psyched about 9 & 10...
