Christopher Hale(@ChristopherHale):NEW: Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Michigan, disavowed the Muslim Brotherhood at a town hall in Caro on Saturday. Then he asked the voter who demanded it why a Muslim candidate would need to. Invoking John F. Kennedy, El-Sayed told the room: “I’m not running to be a Muslim senator. I’m running for the U.S. Senate and happen to be Muslim.” Kennedy faced the same suspicion from Protestant ministers in Houston in 1960. Five years later, the Second Vatican Council told Catholics to regard Muslims “with esteem.”
