Actually, it says we are to pray FOR kings, leaders, etc., THAT we may lead peaceable lives.

Praying for our leaders is the means; leading peaceful lives, etc., is the end.

If that's how you see it then so be it.
You pray for Brandon and I'll keep praying for America.

BTW, that doesn't seem to be working. Is your life peaceable?

Strong's G96 - adokimos
that which does not prove itself such as it ought
unfit for, unproved, spurious, reprobate

Tit 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. G96

Just something to think about.
