Fred Rosewater is the Rhode Island relative that would be in line for the Foundation presidency if Eliot were displaced without any heirs. This is the man that Mushari plansd to represent in his attempt to unseat Eliot. Fred did not know that he was Eliot's second cousin or that he was in line for the presidency.
