Changes

In contrast, the [[American Redoubt]] movement had no mechanism for assuring a critical mass and no goal of achieving political power in the new location.  The movement's new location is spread over five states which virtually assures that the movement's political influence will be diluted and perhaps outweighed by the population of urban areas in those states.  Although the movement started in 2011, over the past five years, there has not be a measurable change in the political influence of its leaders.  While individuals have moved into the new location area, the predicted collapse of American society has not occurred, and their is no evidence that the people who moved into the area are followers of the movement's leaders.

In contrast, conservatives believe in the continuation of the present social order and society.  Conservatives see a duty to be a valuable contributor to their family, their community and their nation.  Conservatives are active in working through elections held at the local, state and national level to select candidates that will best preserve and improve society based on proven policies and values.  For that reason, millions of conservatives are putting their energy in the November elections rather than in some dystopian project that assumes that American society will collapse.  The 2016 Republican primaries and caucuses have drawn a record voter turnout.  Conservatives are "voting with their ballots" rather than "voting with their feet."
