Quiz your politics Earl Hiatt As we approach the primary Tuesday, presidential contenders are using the words “change,” “hope,” “experience” and “straight talk” as if they were manna from heaven.

Patterson resident Earl Hiatt is a semi-retired agri-businessman whose major interests are nutrition, economics and religion. His columns appear occasionally on the Irrigator Voice page.
