The only thing that doesn't quallify Naruto to become Hokage yet (in my oppinion) is his ability to make tough decisions. Naruto's definetly strong enough to become Hokage right now and as far as his battle intellegence, it's at a high level. Makeing decisions for the village, he'd probably get help from Kakashi or Shikamaru with things like that (by makeing them advisors and getting rid of the two old punk ass Danzo wanna be's). However he needs to know how to let go of certian things like Sasuke...His ass needs to die and the sooner Naruto can see that the better. Altough he kind of does now but his resolve was to have to two of them die together, which I don't find logical at all. Me persanolly I would try for a good couple of years to help him, therapy, interventions. If that dosn't work then it's onto tough love and kill one to protect millions. Naruto still is very idealistic, which is alright as long as it dosn't interfear with the well being of the village he's trying to lead and protect. Now if he can save Sasuke that's all well and good but if he can't make the tough decisions he'll never be a good Hokage.
