I am the world’s most famous and greatest scientist, also known as Albert Einstein, and the United States would not have been successful without me. I played a significant role in producing the atomic bomb even before the United States Army was informed about it. I influenced the beginning of the Manhattan Project by notifying President Franklin Roosevelt about the possibility of a nuclear bomb that could incinerate millions of citizens. I was informed about the newest discoveries in fission and how uranium might be used to build devastating bombs in July 1939. I instantly realized that Adolf Hitler would be absolutely unstoppable with atomic bombs. I was horrified and immediately wrote a letter to President Roosevelt in 1939, warning of possible German nuclear weapons search and proposing that the United States begin its own research into atomic energy. The government would not have made the atomic bomb project a top priority and spend millions if I did not urge to start working closely with physicists to

I encouraged President Roosevelt to set up the first Uranium Committee to take up the tasks of evaluating where the United States stood with regards to uranium research and recommend an appropriate role for the federal government. This was only possible due to the fact that I was important and held a high position. President Roosevelt would have been occupied and not have time to listen to other scientists. He would not have cared about building the atomic bomb. My equation E=mc2 explained the power of the atomic bomb and showed that atomic bombs were theoretically possible. The Manhattan Project would have been unsuccessful or not even started if I did not do my duty. Therefore, I, Albert Einstein, am the father of the atomic bomb and should get most of the credit for the success of the United
