Could this have any bearing on where our republic went?

Missing 13th.Amendment

Or is this just a bunch of bull....

Hmmm... I've heard of any missing 13th Amendment before, but that doesn't mean that it hasn't happened. Personally, I'd have to see some more information on it.

Eustace, check out martian's link in post #5.

martian_22, thanks for the link.

I took a look at the other Missing 13th material, and it seems to me that the arguments presented would equally apply to Ph.D's, M.D.'s, etc. As much as I agree that lawyers should not hold public office (because of a conflict of interest) I don't think the interpretation's regarding the Missing 13th Amendment are convincing in this regard.
