I want to hear your opinion! Not just Tsunade was old and she stepped down. In that case Naruto should be the one! But why Kakashi instead? Note that he doesn't have powers anymore... I'd like to hear the logical reasons.. share your thoughts:)

Because Naruto turned it down and told Kakashi to keep his seat warm.

At least, that better be it.

LOL XD Naruto wanted to be Hokage since 1999 why should he turn his dream down?

Because Obito's word is law. And because no one likes Sasuke and Naruto is still mentally a child.

I think Naruto is still to young to be the hokage. So kakashi has to be the 6th.

Kakashi has a better resume. He was a jounin at a young age, was in Black ops for years, is one of the most elite jounin Konoha has, and he has much more leadership skills hence why he was a General throughout the war.

almost every single shinobi admitted that Naruto would be the next Hokage.. also don't forget that Obito told Naruto to become Hokage

that might be true. But what about his powers? He doesn't have one now...

I too am curious about this.

People say its because he isnt matured or hes stupid or hes inexperienced but he is none of that.

He has matured lots over the time of the manga, the time when he acts like a child or he acts stupid is just for comic relief, he may be inexperienced but he has friends that can help him, Shikamaru could help him, Kakashi could also be his advisor. Naruto becoming hokage would have worked out fine in my book.

we're talking about the event that takes place two years from now.. Naruto is mature now (maybe not as experienced as Kakashi)... also Village needs to be protected. Kakashi doesn't have his Ace card aka. Sharingan

yeah that's pretty interesting... really Naruto isn't inexperienced and is mature now.. and the events take place two years from now... So that's why I'd like to know the best reasons

Because he was always worthy of that title and deserved it even more after Pain's invasion...

It's not his MS or Kamui that made him a candidate, he himself was Hokage-material since day 1...
