Fun Fact! Albert Einstein declined Israel's presidency.
When Chaim Weizmann, Israel's first president, died in 1952, the Prime Minister invited Einstein to fill the (mostly ceremonial) office. The scientist said no, writing: "I am extremely affected by our State of Israel's offer, and I am both heartbroken and humiliated that I cannot accept it. I've spent my whole life dealing with objective issues, therefore I lack both the natural ability and the expertise to deal with people and carry out official tasks."
