At a New Hampshire town-hall meeting, Donald Trump failed to correct a man who stated that Barack Obama is a Muslim and “not even American.” The questioner said, “We have a problem in this country—it’s called Muslims. We know our current president is one.” At that point, Trump said “right” uneasily. The questioner then added: “You know he’s not even American, birth certificate man.” At that point, Trump said, “We need this question” to scattered laughter in the audience. In a later statement, the Trump campaign said: “The media wants to make this issue about Obama. The bigger issue is that Obama is waging a war against Christians in this country. Christians need support in this country. Their religious liberties are at stake.”
