The following test was added by an anon:

His conduct of the last pre-independence electoral campaign, in 1961, was nothing short of disastrous, beginning with his declaration that because he understood Einstein he could "compress the time" necessary to undo what the sitting government had done. It was not because of this extravagant promise, but because of his pledge to build a tunnel under the Northern Range in order to shorten the distance from Port of Spain to the nearest beach, that he acquired the nickname of "the mad scientist".
