Konoha is his family.
He want to end the hatered system.
He want to show that the people of konoha treated as a germ can become hokage.
He doesn't need to be Hokage for that
I agree. You don't need to be ruler of a country to love your country. kakashi, jiraiya are best examples
I think he was so focused on becoming the Hokage that he forgot why he wanted become one in the first place
Just like kishi forgot about hiruzen being god of shinobi. He definitely doesn't remember a lot of stuff from part 1. Naruto seems oblivious why he chose to become hokage one day, he now seems like a greedy person. Naruto should've given up his hokage dreams by now. His character development has been terrible
because it is his dream
Well, being Hokage was the quickest way to achieve his dream of being acknowledge
I think that if Naruto becomes the Hokage it would disturb the balance of power between the villagesThat was his reason.
His new reason is that he wants to change things and make the world a better place and protect his friends.
Also he promised many people he would do it, if he gave it up he would be breaking his promises to a lot of characters.
And yes you do need a political position to make things better, notice that Jiraya never actually changed anything despite being a Sannin.

Hasihrama was Hokage and he was the strongest ninja before Naruto and Sasuke, the strongest Ninja is always chosen to be Hokage, because that person is best suited to protect the village.
Also the power won't be an issue because Naruto won't willingly start a war with the other nations, the Kage are aware of this so they will trust him, Gaara openly said that once Naruto becomes Hokage, they will share Sake, that is sacred in Japan, people who share Sake are sworn brothers.
The Hokage is the protector of the village. I think it's all still about that for Naruto.
