    If you answer the following question correctly, you will get rep. No searching for the answer. You get one chance. When giving the answer, you also have to state how many words are in the amendment answer you gave.

    Which amendment of the Constitution contains the fewest words?

    Most of the time that answer trumps everything else. In this case, it is the 13 of the thread, :razz:
