The Amendment process is the formal way to change pieces of the Constitution to better suit the nation's rights. According to Article V, two-thirds of Congress must deem it necessary in order to propose an amendment. To ratify the amendment, three-fourths of the states must approve.
The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments both guarantee the right of due process of the law. The Fifth Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights; the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, adopted in 1868, has been used to selectively incorporate the Bill of Rights to the states.

The Bill of Rights was created using a formal amendment process. An informal amendment process doesn't result in actual changes to the Constitution, only to the way the Constitution is interpreted.
Informal Amendment ProcessThe term "Informal Amendment Process" refers to changes in the interpretation or application of the Constitution by expanding constitutional rights (such as voting) to include groups that were previously excluded. These changes often occur as the result of judicial decisions, usually by the US Supreme Court or by Congressional legislation not struck down as unconstitutional. It is important to note that the "Informal Amendment Process" doesn't actually change the Constitution, just its interpretation, which is in a constant state of flux due to evolving (or devolving) sociopolitical conditions.
The formal amendment process, to the Constitution, requires a supermajority vote in the Senate, and consent (agreement) by three fourths of the states. This process involves most of the U.S., and is, therefore, a federal process. No state, acting alone can change or amend the Constitution (and, therefore, 'states rights' do not apply here).

the 14th amendment
The formal amendment process emphasizes the federal character of the governmental system. Proposal takes place at the national level, and ratification is a state-by-state matter. Also, when the constitution is amended, that action represents the expression of the people's sovereign will.
the 14th amendment
Every state follows a due process amendment, including Texas. The due process amendment is the 4th amendment, which comes from the Constitution. There are 27 total amendments, with the first ten called the Bill of Rights.
The Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments both guarantee the right of due process of the law. The Fifth Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights; the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, adopted in 1868, has been used to selectively incorporate the Bill of Rights to the states.
