I think that you are on the right track with the clutch switch.
There should be a switch somewhere down by the clutch pedal that only allows the starter to crank when the clutch is depressed. It's like the neutral saftey switch on automatic cars.

well theres a little black button that is pressed when you push in the clutch, i can see that, but i went to the auto parts store and they brought me some wacky looking part that didnt look anything like the switch down there. i was wondering if it was called anything different, or if anyone could generate a part number maybe.

Right below the battery box are the next ones to check. There are 3 that come together at that point. Look in the driver's side opposite the ones under the battery box. I would also check your battery cables at the starter. Make sure they are tight.
