Einstein For President Poem by RAJ NANDY

EINSTEIN FOR PRESIDENT

Einstein was eloquent about the Zionist
cause,
And his tacit support he did endorse!
But when offered the Presidentship of Isreal
in Nineteen Hundred and Fifty Two, -
He said that with politics he had nothing to do!
It certainly was not his cup of tea;
For politics was only for the present and lacked
longevity!
But his equations shall remain for eternity!
