Many professed "christians" state they do not pray for obama because they "do not like his politics" , "he's the antichrist and can't be saved", or any number of excuses. They make all sorts of excuses and do not comprehend that we are to pray for our political leaders no matter what their political view or eternal destiny. The purpose for prayer is not only for their salvation (which would be nice) but for spiritual battle and that they make decisions that will bless instead of curse the country that Yahweh put them into power of.
The bible clearly says to obey them (as long as it doesn't violate Yahweh's word) and to pray for them.
Romans 13
1 Obey the rulers who have authority over you. Only God can give authority to anyone, and he puts these rulers in their places of power.
2 People who oppose the authorities are opposing what God has done, and they will be punished.
3 Rulers are a threat to evil people, not to good people. There is no need to be afraid of the authorities. Just do right, and they will praise you for it.
4 After all, they are God's servants, and it is their duty to help you. If you do something wrong, you ought to be afraid, because these rulers have the right to punish you. They are God's servants who punish criminals to show how angry God is.
5 But you should obey the rulers because you know it is the right thing to do, and not just because of God's anger.
6 You must also pay your taxes. The authorities are God's servants, and it is their duty to take care of these matters.
7 Pay all that you owe, whether it is taxes and fees or respect and honor.
1 Timothy 2
1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
If the government commands you to do something against Yahweh, you are to resist and suffer whatever consequences for that action. For example: During the tribulation someone who comes to faith in Messiah Yeshua there is no way they can take the antichrist's loyalty mark (AKA 666 or 'mark of the beast') because anyone who does will be damned to hell for eternity - and those that refuse to take it will be beheaded for their refusal:
Revelation 13
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
Revelation 14
9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Praying for the leaders may lead to their salvation although even if it doesn't, can lead them to carry out Yahweh's will. One major modern day example of this is when the UN voted to bring the nation of Israel into existence in 1948. Without hitler and the holocaust, this would not have happened. Many of those that voted for Israel never would have. Just because you do not like the leader or their politics does not mean you can ignore the scripture that says to respect, obey, and pray for them - as long as it does not violate Yahweh's word.
For those in the united states, Yahweh will put His choice as president into office whether you agree with it or not and whether you vote for them or not. He does not need your help or vote to do so. Remember, "christians" were behind hitler coming to power to "make Germany great again". Yes, it was Yahweh's will and He used it to bring Israel into existance and set up His end time plan but those who supported hitler are held accountable for their actions.
If you are a Christian and support Hillary - what if Trump is Yahweh's plan? If you support Trump what if Hillary is Yahweh's plan? Ancient Israel demanded a king and got Saul when Yahweh's plan was King David. Abraham and Sarah tried to help Yahweh out when Yahweh told them Abraham would have a son and to this day, we are still suffering the consequences of Ishmael coming into the world because they did not wait for Yahweh and His timing. Yahweh does NOT need your help and america will NOT "become great again" This is the end times and Yahweh is setting the end time players (nations and leaders) into power.
I believe it very likely for the rapture to happen before the election. Whether it does or doesn't, pray for both of the probable candidates as well as the one Yahweh will put into leadership of the united states (whether it be one of them or someone else) and pray for the senators and representatives that will (supposedly) represent the people of the united states in congress. If you live outside of the united states - support your leader as long as it does not violate Yahweh's will. Pray for your leaders.

The Mark of The Beast (antichrist / 666) Is a PHYSICAL Mark - don't believe the lies!
Something that is very disturbing is the amount of people on the internet who are bible teacher wanna-be's who have no clue about what the bible says. There is so much false and heretical doctrine and some teachings that are extremely dangerous that are being spread by people who are biblically ignorant. The bible warns that there will be a stricter judgment for those who are teachers which should make people study the bible before making their youtube videos with their [false] bible teachings. Some (most?) get their false teachings from other false teachers or even fictional books. Few study the bible and even fewer study apologetics.
James 3:1 Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, since you know that we will be judged more severely.
1 Timothy 1:7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
2 Timothy 4
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
2 Peter 2
1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
There have been some extremely heretical and some downright spiritually dangerous teachings that have gained momentum since the advent of the internet. One of the most rampant is replacement theology, with all of its flavors, spread by false teachers and their followers. Another extremely dangerous teaching is the one that says that the mark of the beast is "spiritual" and is not a physical mark. The heretics that are teaching this extremely dangerous doctrine and they claim that "there is nothing you can do to lose your salvation" (words to that affect)
What these false teachers do not understand (or if they undestand they are intentionally deceiving) is that the mark of the beast (antichrist / 666) is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit and Yahweh will give those who take it a strong delusion so there is no hope for them - people will not, and can not, repent after receiving the mark. The people that take the mark of the beast (antichrist / 666) are eternally damned. These false teachers teach that it is not impossible to lose hope of salvation but the bible is clear there is such a time one can have no possibility of repentance.
Matthew 12:31 I tell you that any sinful thing you do or say can be forgiven. Even if you speak against the Son of Man, you can be forgiven. But if you speak against the Holy Spirit, you can never be forgiven, either in this life or in the life to come.
2 Thessalonians 2
10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Romans 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate1 mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Finally, several verses in the book of Revelation speak of the antichrist's mark (666 / mark of the beast) and they clearly say once a person takes it, they are reprobate - unable to repent - and with the other verses (above) it is clear that Yahweh has given them a strong delusion and a strong indication that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is a conditon for accepting the mark either explicit or implied. The verses also say there will be angels warning of the consequences of taking the mark so whoever does so will be clearly warned and will do so knowing what the consequences are - nobody will be tricked into it or take it ignorant of the consequences.
Revelation 13
15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Revelation 15:2 And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God.
Revelation 16:2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.
Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
