18 December 1999 - Former Senator and Presidential candidate Bill Bradley admitted his past marijuana use at a Town Hall meeting in Nashua, NH Q:How much of a factor do you believe the long-past drug use of any candidate should be? A: I think the public has a right to know from a crook, but not a sinner. In terms of a crook, the question [would be], "Did you break the law smoking marijuana?" You break the law. I admitted that I have smoked marijuana. And I don’t think that it’s an issue if it occurs 30 years ago. People have a deeper understanding of the human condition, of the nuances of life. I don’t think this is a determinative issue.
