Why didn't Einstein work on the Manhattan Project?
Einstein was a life-long pacifist.
The 700-page book "Einstein on Peace" is the most comprehensive record of everything he wrote, during his life, about Peace. It was published posthumously, by his family foundation, to counter the uninformed claims, that he gave up his pacifist convictions.
Einstein never worked on the Manhattan Project. He didn't believe that energy would be released from the atom, during his life-time. When early experiments showed that this might actually happen, Leo Szilard asked Einstein to sign a letter to FDR, telling him about this possibility.
After World War II, Einstein continued his pacifist views, and became a crusader for nuclear arms control, and peace-making through international negotiations.

How did the Allies gain their power?
The allies gained power because of several things. First of all Americas production ability was one of the best in the world. Next Brtains Navy was the best in the World. Finally Russia had a huge population which allowed it to have a very large army.

Why did the US decided to enter the are and fight on the side of the allies?
Many things might have lead up to it but one of the main things was a german submarine sunk an american ship without warning
No American ships were sunk by the Germans. The ship in question was the British Lusitania. 128 Americans aboard drowned when it sank. The Zimmermann Note was also a factor and the war debts owed to the US by the Allies that would be impossible to repay if the Allies lost could be considered the most significant motivation.

Both actually are not main concern for American foreign policy and remain not to be sided with any political blog in global affair.
