Abdul El-Sayed parlayed his race-obsessed medical research to fast-track, fund journey to Congress: critics

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed turned his weird science into a stepping stone, exploiting identity politics in academia to fast-track and fund his journey to Congress, according to critics and a Post review of his research.

The radical lefty penned more than 50 papers while at Columbia Medical School between 2007 and 2014, with more than a dozen hyper-focused on race and religion — including a paper that claimed the children of interracial parents were less healthy.

A 2011 study, for example, suggested white people could take a lesson from Muslims who have lower suicide rates — thanks to Sharia law.
