This is difficult. I'm more involved with the second for obvious reasons. Although the first, fouth and fifth are just as important, and under almost as much attack as the second.

I choose the second because of it's constant misrepresentation by history and constitutional revistionists.

I chose 1 because it lets me run my back fat mouth. Also because i can't remember most of them past #2

You need to be careful of back fat in the mouth.

Gotta go with #1, since it's the one which most clearly protects my right to respond to this poll.

But I'm guessing #21 gets a lot of support. ;)

There are 27 Amendments.

My vote is for the tenth, the forgotten amendment.

Number 2.
It is the one that secures the rest.

10 and 1 are close behind.

I choose two, because I can protect all the others with it.

EDIT: Thinking about it again, #10 is a very close second (and then #1). Would be nice if we were a federalist republic.

the 10th however it appears that most judges have never heard of it, other than maybe Scalia.
