The 5th Amendment guarantees due process rights from the Federal government.

The 14th guarantees due proces rights from the States.

Due Process rights are the same in both cases its just a matter of which government is covered by which clause.

The 14th is, in part, a restriction on the States. It is not creating a State Right; it is declaring an individual Right.

Similarly, the 5th isn't describing a federal government Right, but an individual Right.

Or am I misunderstanding your point?
