Maestro?
Antipatis?

Are you guys researching the 14th Amendment? If you are maybe you can tell me if the following statement is true.

(I know I have read this before I just can't find a source to cite, and I don't want to assert something I can't prove. Since I can't prove it I will have to call it hearsay or rumor.)

When the 14th was "ratified" ,9 july 1868, 21 states ratified the amendment. Problem is at that time in American History 28 states were needed to meet the "3/4 of the several states" requirement. Can you help me out on this one? Thanks.

Later,
