Hey, a real beauty queen, but governing a country isn’t a beauty contest. Remember a story about a young ukrainian girl who was badly burned in a house fire saving her sister, natasha is her name. Pres Yushenko(sp?)and a shriner got her to the burn unit in boston where she is doing very well at last report. That’s a hope of mine : get more crippled and burned kids to our 22 free hospitals from all around the world, transportation costs being the biggest challenge.

This is the smartest politician in Ukraine. She has adopted the traditional look of a Ukrainian woman with the braid and the trend to traditional dress.

She is much quicker wtted than Yanukovitch who is just an apparatchik Russophile toady. Yuschenko is sick, and probably will not last much longer.

Yulia has already paid visits to the U.S. to talk to government and also with newspapers about Ukraine.

My prediction: She is President of Ukraine within two years.
