the senju democracy lol

Madara could not be chose to hokage by hashirama because tobirama said he'd have to be voted in by the village..

but Hiruzen ( the 3rd hokage) was chozen and pick to be hokage by Tobirama.. no vote, no village approval nothing lmao

 

[Aquarius]

I think tobirama said that cuz he didn't trust madara because of his dirty past but hiruzen was chosen because he was much trustworthy and also he have the will of fire with him, you get that and i forgotten one thing and it is that, at the time of choosing 3rd hokage tobirama was going to be decoy and he and others also know it well that he ain't no coming back so discussion and voting knd of things can't be done as kage is a first priority to the lands and hidden villages

exactly what this guy said lol and because tobirama is an ashole

 

[Sir Blades]

And kakashi/danzo was appointed by the daimyo. So there is no consistency in electing a Kage.

 

[WaterBreather]

I would thinkk that still the Leafs Village had a little vote within themselves. Or, they only had a vote in the first place because it would be the 1st Hokage they have had. And, if you remember for Tsunade there wasn't really a vote, just a OK by the village elders.

 

[shishomaru 21]

an ******* he maybe but still the fact remains tobirama was the one who help set up the whole system so its kinda suspect that he could just all of a sudden forget about it or say **** it when it was time to pick the third hokage ...ijs

 

[yes iam Sakura chan]

Lol Tobirama is douchebag .

actually they voted on jiraiya but he turned it down which left Tsunade but the village agreed that it would be a sannin an orochi was out

the system that he set up is what caused all this bs to happen.

 

[Kurome]

The kage appointment is used properly based on the situation...meaning almost never U_U

 

[warlee]

They would still vote for hiruzen, even if hiruzen was chosen by tobirama, the jonin vote for him and he was approved by the daiymo.

The daimiyo are money and resources eaters U_U They do nothing...corporations are organized in daimyio in naruto :snick:

 

[Itachi2020]

I think that voting was necessary for appointing the first hokage, as the village by this time has only some clans, who didn't trust each other enough to accept appointing him without voting.

Madara wasn't chosen because he attempted too many things against Senjus. The story that Hashirama told Sasuke clearly proved that Madara was the one who always tried to start a battle against the Senjus. (obviously because he couldn't beat Hashirama)
Everyone knows how Madara was and Tobirama stated the fact that no one will vote Madara to be the next Hokage.
Also Tobirama was the advisor of Hashirama.
Also there was no proof that Madara won't drag the village into the battle between the leaders of Uchihas and Senjus.

Now talking about Hiruzen, that was a critical decision when the survival of the current Hokage cannot be assured. Also Hokage got the decision to decide who will take on the seat of Hokage if the candidate thinks about the village more than his own personal grudges. Hiruzen was the best choice.

What this guy said.

Tobirama stated that nobody (most likely majority not literally every single person) would of objected to it.

And tobirama was going to die so he appointed hiruzen and hiruzen turned out to be a great hokage anyway.

 

[Avani]

First of there must be an official king/hokage no matter what. Such a post cannot be vacant. So yea when Tobirama knew he won't survive he had to chose someone. Village could decide for another if they wanted it.

Danzou had challenged Hiruzen for the hokage's seat and lost. Remember? It's not a democracy in the sense as you know of in US or other such countries. Still Hokage's need to be approved( Danzou's appointment after Tsunade was in koma) or prove himself if challenged.

Besides be it any system if enough people are in position to give in an opinion ( Konoha was just being founded and clans were coming together in the name of Hashi) for being a leader one would need their support.

 

[Raekwon26]

Ah, The Village Hidden in the BS.

Place is a cesspool of complete garbage and an absolute walking embarrassment.

'Will of Fire'? What complete BS. It would have been poetic justice if Sasuke lit that village up, sadly Kishi got Disney on us.

 

[Anorien16]

You should know that even in RL normal democratic procedures and protocols like general election are suspended during the times of war ...... also as far as it is shown its not a public election, only the important figureheads of the Shinobi Army elects the Hokage (who is only millitary head of Land of Fire) with the approval of the actual ruler the Fudal Lord of Fire.
