Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but I don't see how that contradicts what I said..
What I'm saying is that it makes sense for a king to project strength during or after conquest (like Aegon with his dragons) or a coup (like Robert Baratheon), but since Bran was democratically elected, strength is not a necessary trait.
Not to mention the fact that Bran actually might be the most powerful person in the story anyway.
