Bernard Rosenberg

Bernard Rosenberg (2560-)
Rosenberg was born in the town Saint Vincent near Ceres, Sildar, on April 22, 2560. The scion of a traditional family of farmers (his parents had an apple orchard), he embarked on a military career at first, then turned to the study of law. Entering politics, he was elected to the Sildar provincial legislature as member of the Conservative Union, but became an independent member after several dissagreements with the conservative party. He later joined the local Sildar Conservative Party, and becoing mayor of Ceres in 2590. He resigned in 2597, and became a lawyer in Sildar City.

Nationalist Party

As a lawyer, Rosenberg had to deal with several immigration and ethical questions, but due to his conservative background, he opposed the progressive juridical system in Sildar, starting his nationalist emphaties. It was in this period, the 2610's, that Rosenberg started to bring his nationalist-conservative ideas to federal level. In 2618 he became one of the founders of the Alorian Nationalist Party, and was elected as member of Parliament in 2623. Rosenberg became one of the hardliners of the party, with a strong anti-immigrant policy and a strong opposer of abortion and gay-rights. While being the candidate for the post of Minister of Justice, he became presidential candidate suddenly after party-member Grimaldi resigned his candidacy. With a strong support in both the provinces of Sildar and Ultran, Rosenberg was elected President in the early elections of 2625.
