DESCRIPTION:Special Event: Saturday March 1st 5pm-1am\n\nLocation: 150 Folsom Street, 
 San Francisco, CA 94105\n(Between Spear St and Main St - 1 block west of

 Film /  \nMellow Mood Food / 420 Room / Tea\n\nThis coming Sat from 5pm to 
 1am join us with friends to show your  \nsupport for truth and freedom, 
 meet Steve Kubby and enjoy a festival  \nof music, art, video and 
 libations. Come experience a new found  \npositive vision of an intelligent 
 future. Regardless of political  \nstance, you are welcome to bring your 
 ideas, inquisitive natures,  \ncreativity and style, not necessarily to 
 support in an individual  \nalone, but to support a voice for public 
 awareness and practical  \nreform. Leiber Tea points to Steve Kubby as a 
 man who offers a  \nchannel to this communication and re-education holding 
 a strong  \nstance for real truth and freedom.\n\n"They that can give up 
 essential liberty to obtain a little temporary  \nsafety deserve neither 
 liberty nor safety."\n- Benjamin Franklin\n\nIn a system and society where 
 categories and labels are necessary to  \nmarket and facilitate public 
 understanding, "radical" truths are  \noften met with fear, ignorance and 
 then refusal to the detriment of  \nthe global masses. We invite you to 
 bypass all stereotypes of art,  \nscience and politics to see through to a 
 new vision of freedom that  \nhas already made its mark. Fearless and 
 willing to enact policy and  \neffect change against the odds, Steve Kubby, 
 already has proven  \nhimself a survivor and a hero to freedom. With a vast 
 population of  \nsupporters, and growing, he is a living icon who takes it 
 much  \nfurther. Your help will allow his voice to give back freedom and 
 let  \nit grow.\n\n"What I believe, of course, is less important than what 
 YOU believe. I\ninvite -- indeed, I implore -- you to take a close look at 
 all of the\ncandidates seeking your support. Examine our positions. Look at 
 our\nrecords. Listen to our debates. Make your decision, and then ACT 
 on\nthat decision by getting involved. Stand for selection as a 
 delegate\nto the national convention in support of the candidate you 
 prefer.\nWrite a check to the campaign you support. Talk to your friends 
 and\nget them involved, too."\n\n- Steve Kubby, Presidential Candidate 2008 
 - http://www.kubby2008.com/\n\nHistory:\n\nSteve Kubby is the only 2008 
 presidential candidate who's played a  \nkey role in passing pro-freedom 
 legislation, then gone to court --  \nand to jail -- defending that 
 legislation. Since the passage of  \nProposition 215 in 1996, twelve states 
 have adopted "compassionate  \nuse" laws to protect patients whose ailments 
 require them to use  \nmedical marijuana.\n\n"Steve Wynn Kubby (born 
 December 28, 1946) is a Libertarian Party  \nactivist who played a key role 
 in the drafting and passage of  \nCalifornia Proposition 215. The 
 proposition was a ballot initiative  \nto legalize medical marijuana which 
 was approved by voters in 1996.  \nKubby himself is well-known as a cancer 
 patient who relies on medical  \ncannabis. He was a candidate for Governor 
 of California in 1998 and  \nhas declared his candidacy for the Libertarian 
 Party's 2008  \npresidential nomination." -- Wikipedia\n\nAs a founder and 
 director of the American Medical Marijuana  \nAssociation, Steve Kubby has 
 continued to fight for Americans' right  \nto protect their health without 
 facing political persecution. In that  \nrole, he has negotiated with 
 federal regulators, including the  \nAttorney General of the United States, 
 on behalf of patient rights.\n\nLike some other former, current or likely 
 presidential candidates,  \nSteve Kubby is a cancer patient. As a matter of 
 fact, he is the  \nlongest-surviving known victim of malignant 
 phenochromocytoma, a rare  \nform of adrenal cancer with a 100% fatality 
 rate within five years.  \nSteve has lived with malignant phenochromocytoma 
 for more than 30  \nyears, and his condition remains under control ... 
 thanks to medical  \nmarijuana.\n\nSince his first cancer diagnosis in 
 1968, Steve has led a National  \nGeographic expedition up Mt. Shasta, 
 flown jet fighter aircraft at  \nthe US Navy's "Top Gun" school, skied most 
 of the world's most  \nprominent slopes, conducted exploratory scuba dives 
 in Aruba, Bonaire  \nand the British Virgin Islands, published the number 
 one ski magazine  \nin seven countries, and built a successful property 
 management company,\n\nSteve is the author of The Politics of Consciousness 
 (1995) and, with  \nEd Rosenthal, Why Marijuana Should Be Legal 
 (1996).\n\n"Freedom is never free." -
