"All citizens are entitled to due process."
Explanation: the Fifth Amendment guarantees due process and also protects against self-incrimination, double jeopardy, and uncompensated takings. The first two statements describe the Fourth Amendment (searches/seizures and warrants). The third is incorrect as written — there is a "public-safety" exception to Miranda that can allow questioning without warnings in an immediate safety emergency.
