Which phrase from a letter written by Sarah Glinka in 1837 is reflective of the 14th Amendment?

It is impossible
Liberty and justice for all
A house divided against itself cannot stand
All persons born or naturalized

The correct answer is: It is impossible

Context The 14th Amendment was ratified in 1868, and its purpose was to grant citizenship rights and equal protection under the law to all individuals born or naturalized in the United States. It was a significant amendment in addressing issues of equality and civil rights. The correct answer is: D. "All persons born or naturalized." This phrase from the 14th Amendment is reflected in the letter by Sarah Glinka from 1837. This phrase was not only a key component of the 14th Amendment, but it was also a crucial aspect of Sarah Glinka's letter, which emphasized the idea of equal citizenship rights for all individuals. None of the other options mention this concept of citizenship rights, making them incorrect in the context of the 14th Amendment. Option A, "It is impossible," does not relate to the 14th Amendment at all. Option B, "Liberty and justice for all," was a popular phrase during the Civil War, but it was not included in the 14th Amendment. Option C, "A house divided against itself cannot stand," is a quote from Abraham Lincoln's speech in 1858 and is not related to the 14th Amendment either.
