Yes, the amendments are part of the Constitution. No, there is no constitutional right to vote.

I hoped you would be able to see where I was going with my question...

So...what about:
A1-"the right of the people peaceably to assemble"?
A2-"the right of the people to keep and bear Arms"?
A4-"the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects"?
None of those things are mentioned anywhere except in the Amendments.

So how is "the right to vote" in A15; A19; and A26 any different?

"shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State"
