Lets face it, Tsunade only became Hokage beacause Jiraya said no!

Compare Tsunade to former Hokages = Hashirama! Tobirama! Hiruzen! Minato! She is WAY out of her league! I like Tsunade, she is a great character, but she is not Hokage material. Im sorry to say.
I base this on a couple of things, if Pain for example knew Hashirama was guarding Konoha, he NEVER would have invaded, or if Minato, Tobirama or Hiruzen where guarding, it would have been to risky for pain, he would have used another tactic to get Naruto.

Jiraiya went to Pains home turf and kicked his ass! Killing four of them and getting vital info that SAVED KONOHA He sacrificed himself. And his story/book about Naruto and Nagato is what changed Nagatos mind in the end. He even used Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique to bring back everyone that had died.

Tsunade did..... nothing....

Ok, she healed everyone but that was too little to late, after Pain allready had destroyed her village, the ultimate defeat for a Kage.

Try to imagine what would have happened if another Hokage was there when pain invaded? Fact = Hashirama or Tobirama or Minato or Hiruzen + Kakashi would have destroyed pain even before Naruto came back! Tsunade just stod there shaking her fist in anger " why you darn pain"

To be fair to Tsunade, Kishimoto intended for her to defeat Pain but the editors of SJ said that Naruto should be the one to beat him.

She wasn't anyone's first choice. She was a depressed, disheveled drunk who gambled away all her money until she had to get saved by a 12 year old.

Agree with you, but who else was strong at that time? beside Kakashi. Imo it was best for the plot to carry on like it is now, and Kakashi beside Naruto.

To be honest, with some added plot assitance I think Tsunade would have given the Six Paths a run for their money. I'd like to see that fight.

Flame jacket on.

Really?? Where did you read this?

He actually told it in the same interview where he said it was going to be Kakashi's year if I remember correctly.

Also, of course Tsunade wasn't the first choice. She was retired, she never was an option before Jiraiya said he can make her come back to the village.
Also Hiruzen is clearly the weakest hokage. Minato belongs in the same skill level with Tsunade. :|

Danzo remained underground with his anbu because he wanted Tsunade dead. He wanted to be hokage.
He even said that Tsunade can keep the villagers alive with her jutsu. xD What an ass.
