“Jesus wept.” John 11:35
and so should we. Obummer is certainly NOT a minister and we do need to pray for him. God answers a variety of prayers every day...
Plan for the worst, hope for the best, work to the glory of God, and pray without ceasing.
You missed the part about praying for our leaders. Didn’t say pray for them if we like them. Kind of like the whole pray for you enemies thing. It gets easier with practice and we are commanded to do so
