Obama's Freedom of "Worship" instead of "Religion" (new info)

Obama/Hillary and Freedom of Religion vs. Freedom of Worship

"Some advocates for international religious freedom are monitoring what they fear is a change in the language being used by Obama administration officials – that the broad emphasis on spreading freedom of religion that the president used when he spoke in Cairo last June is being subtly replaced by the more limited concept of freedom of worship."

This issue has been around for most of this year, but I have yet to find any article or posting which documents every instance of the phrase "Freedom of Religion" and "Freedom of Worship" from Obama and/or Hillary. So I went through every Obama transcript from the "Speeches and Remarks" section at whitehouse.gov (starting with his Inaugural Address) and used the search function on each transcript to find any instances of "worsh", "relig", and "free". As far as Hillary’s transcripts go, I used the search function on her entire group of transcripts at once and went through every use of "worship" and "religion" that turned up. I also searched for the word "religious" but I gave up once I realized that I’d have to go through almost 4,000 transcripts.

I’ve only used Obama’s transcripts for this post, but I’ll also leave all of the Hillary examples that I found at the very end… as well as some Obama transcripts that I wasn’t sure if I should include.
