The Fourteenth Amendment is made up of five sections, with the third section stating:
"No person shall be a Senator of Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."
Therefore, the fourteenth amendment disqualifies anyone who has taken part in insurrection or rebellion against the United States from holding office.
The fourteenth amendment of the US Constitution disqualifies anyone who has taken part in an insurrection or rebellion against the government from holding the government office. This amendment was passed on July 9th, 1868.
There is no such amendment that totally disqualifies anyone from holding any government office.
