A combination of Conservatives and bowel movements, which covers conservatives in general.
[[Category:Conservative]]A '''movement conservative''' is one who supports all or nearly all [[conservative]] principles with a coherent philosophy, and who advances broad [[conservative]] goals both individually and through teamwork. This is contrasted with [[Republican in name only|cafeteria]], or single-issue, or self-serving approaches.
Put another way, a '''movement conservative''' is a conservative who seeks to help others, and the nation, by explaining, advocating and defending the logical and beneficial conservative approach. A movement conservative is not primarily seeking political gain for himself, but advocates the insights and values of [[conservatism]] for the benefit of others.
Examples of movement conservatives would include:
*The late Senator [[Jesse Helms]]
*The late President [[Ronald Reagan]]
*The late Congressman [[John Ashbrook]]
*Activist [[Phyllis Schlafly]]
*Justice [[Clarence Thomas]]
*The late University President [[Jerry Falwell]]
*[[United Nations]] Ambassador [[John Bolton]]
*Columnist [[Thomas Sowell]]
*Commentator [[Rush Limbaugh]]
*U.S. Representative for [[Minnesota]]'s 6th District [[Michele Bachmann]]
