Amendment 5 where it says “no person" rather than "no citizen".

Show me where the intent was to include all peoples of the world who are not US Citizens. You can't. That is only your opinion.

I will accept your opinion that Constitutional legal due process rights do not apply to non-citizens if you can document that the government did not recognize such rights when the first non-citizen (whoever he was) was charged with violating U.S. law under the Constitution.

BTW: You still haven’t clarified whether or not the U.S. can deny non-citizen their inalienable right to life and liberty without extending them legal due process rights.
