What Democrats Need To Do To Win, by Patti Solis Doyle for CNN, October 13, 2018

And now Democrats are angry. Women are especially angry. Some are expressing their anger by running for office. Most of us are voting in record numbers. And millions are protesting, marching, calling, tweeting, posting and screaming at their televisions. It's an advantage, yes, but how Democrats use it now will mean the difference between winning and losing.

Burn Down the 'Boys Will Be Boys' Club, by Patti Solis Doyle for CNN, September 24, 2018

In less than two years, the universe has changed dramatically. The #MeToo movement changed our culture and the way we, as a society, look at sexual assault and sexual harassment. Women are coming forward. They are working through their fear, shame, and trauma in order to change the rules.

Drop the Partisan Nonsense on Harassment, by Patti Solis Doyle for CNN, November 24, 2017

Sexual harassment is not a political issue. It's not about Democrat vs. Republican. It's about the victim. The stories of the victims are horrifying, scary, and disgusting. We need to listen.

Will America Ever Have a Woman President?, for Politico Magazine, November 3, 2017

If Hillary Clinton Were a Man, by Patti Solis Doyle for CNN, April 29, 2016

On Tuesday night, Donald Trump argued that, "If Hillary Clinton were a man, I don't think she'd get 5% of the vote. ... The only thing she's got going on is the women's card." My immediate reaction? I threw the plum I was eating at the TV, then tweeted, "If Hillary were a man, she'd have been president 25 years ago." Trump's argument -- and my reaction to it -- raise an important question. Are Clinton's accomplishments less impressive, or more impressive, because she's a woman? How you answer should help you decide how to vote in November.

What My Dad Could Teach Donald Trump, by Patti Solis Doyle for CNN, August 20, 2015

"Trump's "birthright citizenship" agenda -- still undefined -- could cut closer to home, however. Juny and I were born in the United States before our parents became citizens. My four other siblings earned their citizenship years after arriving. What would Trump do with us? There is a cost to stripping me and my brothers and sisters of our citizenship -- a cost to us, to Chicago and to the country."

Is Hillary Clinton's good government also good politics?, by Patti Solis Doyle for CNN, July 14, 2015

"At the end of the day, however, a race should boil down to who can govern. Who has the right ideas and policies for the time? And who can actually get them done?

Monday, during Hillary Clinton's economic address, we got to see her at her best, talking about the topics that matter most, in a way that demonstrates how she'd get things done (and why others are likely to fail)."

Startup Sees Profit in State's Financial Woes, The Wall Street Journal, March 21, 2013
