[[Category:Conservative]]A '''movement conservative''' is one who supports all or nearly all recognizes and advocates across-the-board [[conservative]] principles with a coherent philosophy, and who advances broad [[conservative]] goals both individually and through teamworkwithout exception. This is contrasted with [[Republican in name only|cafeteria]], or single-issue, or self-serving ]] approaches. Movement conservatives, unlike cafeteria conservatives, understand that since conservative philosophy is a coherent whole, it is untenable to discard part of it without discarding all of it. '''Movement conservatives favor [[logic]] rather than self-centered behavior''' and therefore reject the teachings of [[Ayn Rand]], who considered [[selfishness]] to be logical.
