“I don’t want any kid doing what I tried to do 30 years ago,” Bush said in recordings made when he was governor of Texas and aired Monday on ABC’s “Good Morning America.””And I mean that. It doesn’t matter if it’s LSD, cocaine, pot, any of those things, because if I answer one, then there will be another one. And I just am not going to answer those questions. And it may cost me the election.”

The recordings were made by Doug Wead, a former aide to George W. Bush’s father, in the two years before the younger Bush became the Republican nominee for president in 2000.
