"I wouldn't answer the marijuana question," he says.
"You know why? 'Cause I don't want some little kid doing what I tried."
He feared that any such admission might affection his standing if he won the presidency.
"You gotta understand, I want to be president, I want to lead," he tells Mr Wead.
"Do you want your little kid to say 'Hey daddy, President Bush tried marijuana, I think I will'?"
Key Christians
As well as mocking then Vice-President Al Gore for admitting to smoking the drug, Mr Bush is heard dismissing him as pathologically a liar.
What is perhaps most remarkable about the conversations is how early on Mr Bush realised that reaching out to Christian conservatives would be crucially important to his political fortunes.
