A '''movement conservative''' advocates for across-the-board [[conservative]] principles, without exception.  This is in contrast with [[Republican in name only|cafeteria, single-issue, or self-serving]] approaches.  Movement conservatives, unlike cafeteria conservatives, understand that conservative philosophy is a coherent whole, and thus it is untenable to discard part of it without discarding all of it.  '''''Movement conservatives favor [[charity]] and [[logic]] rather than self-centered behavior''''' and therefore reject the teachings of [[Ayn Rand]], who advocated [[selfishness]], and fully oppose the [[liberal]] agenda.

Simply put, a movement conservative is a [[conservative]] who seeks to help others, and the nation, by advocating and defending the logical and beneficial conservative approach.  A movement conservative is not primarily seeking political gain for him or herself, but advocates the insights and values of [[conservatism]] for the benefit of others.
