Clutch sensor?

I am having the same problem lately, but it feels like it is a problem with the clutch. If it doesn't respond, I simply let the clutch out, hold it in harder, and it turns over.
Not sure why moving the car would affect anything in the starter sequence.

If the instrument cluster lights up properly; everything turns on as it should and the car does not crank, I would be leaning more towards a clutch switch. However like extanker said, there are many factors that are playing into the starting of the vehicle...

(odd how rolling the car back a little will allow it to start ) Ill have to look into that.
