    The major difference is that in the alternative A: "The Fifth Amendment's due process clause originally applied only to the Federal Government"; The Fourteenth Amendment expanded the coverage of due process clause when applied it to all states, stating:

    " ( ...) nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws"
