Candidate Krivogorsky’s View

Bogdana (her Ukranian birth name) Krivogorsky has been Americanized since she immigrated to the US at age 15. She goes by Dana (pronounced Donna) now. She left at the strong urging of her grandfather who saw the former Soviet Union crumbling and wanted a better more secure future for his granddaughter. She arrived a little too late to lose her charming slavic accent. Multilinguist, Mike Jaros, told me her name meant something like God’s gift.

I know Dana’s background because her claim to have met with all School Board members was certainly true in my case. She, along with Loren Martell, are the most reliable and dogged meeting attenders usually hanging on our every word from beginning to meeting’s end three to four hours later. If course, it goes without saying that Loren is the record holder having started his listening posts about the time I flamed out after Let Duluth Vote’s legal challenge to the imposition of the Red Plan without a vote sputtered and died. That was 2010.

Furthermore, Dana brought an interesting proposal to our “Special” Board meeting on Monday before I left Duluth for my Colorado family reunion. She spoke at the beginning of the meeting. By the way this is the video I was unable to find in the previous post.

Dana suggested that we bring some auditors in to see what we can do to clean up the finances that have been so damaging. And by the way it turns out that microbiologist Dana has a formidible Mother, Victoria, who teaches advanced accounting and auditing at San Diego State University. I have a sneaking sense that Dana spoke with her mother before speaking to us. Considering the financial wrecking ball that the Red Plan has been to our schools I welcome Dana’s recommendation.

Her opinion piece in today’s Tribune is full of good general recommendations.

It looks like the Trib is publishing in our think pieces alphabetically by candidate’s last name. If so, mine will show up on Saturday.
