		</div><p>Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump faces more criticism after he declined to correct a questioner at a town hall event who incorrectly said president Barack Obama is a Muslim.</p>
<p>Mr Trump, who has a history of controversial remarks about immigrants and other groups, was kicking off a town hall event in Rochester, New Hampshire, his first since Wednesday evening’s second Republican primary debate.</p>
<p>The first man Mr Trump called on to ask a question said: “We have a problem in this country. It’s called Muslims. We know our current president is one. You know he’s not even an American.”</p>
<p>Mr Trump, who was a driver of the “birther” movement that falsely claimed Mr Obama was not born in the US, first responded with feigned exasperation – “We need the question”, he said, to laughs – but let the man continue.</p>
<p>The questioner continued: “We have training camps growing where they want to kill us. That’s my question. When can we get rid of it?”</p>
<p>Mr Trump did not dispute the man’s assertions and said he had heard others raise the issue.</p>

<p>He added: “We’re going to be looking at a lot of different things. And you know, a lot of people are saying that, and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening out there. We’re going to be looking at that and plenty of other things.”</p>
<p>The incident evoked a moment during the 2008 campaign when Republican nominee John McCain took the microphone away from a woman who said she did not trust Mr Obama because he was an “Arab”.</p>
<p>Mr Trump’s questions about the president’s country of birth helped build his stature among some conservative voters and pushed Mr Obama to release a copy of his birth certificate in 2011. But the billionaire businessman has distanced himself from the issue during his current run.</p>
<p>Mr Trump’s appearance in a sweaty auditorium was also interrupted several times by a protester whose interruptions were met by hostility from the Trump-friendly crowd.</p>
