Clearly Minato is a good choice, i'm not hating on that i just think Hiruzen did have some bias, and maybe Itachi even while young is a genius and with all the jutsu at his finger tips he would learn a lot and be an op and fair kage, he would get to change everything.

He would have been better to put after Minato to calm down the Uchiha after the Kyuubi attack/discrimination, instead of old Hiruzen which just gets manipulated/tricked by Danzo all the time.

Itachi was 5-6 years old when Minato died, Hiruzen said Itachi hade the reasoning of a Hokage at 7 but knowing to put the whole village before any singular clan isn't enough. Itachi graduate from the ninja academy at 7, awakened his sharingan at 8, was a jounin at 10 and jounin at 13. He still lack the experience of a ninja, he has to be strong to protect the village and be able to make the right call. You wanted him to be Hokage when he was still in the academy, Kakashi was actually older than him and already a jounin at that time so he would have been a better candidate but even he lacked the wisdom that comes with age. He knows the ninja rules and all but still didn't know everything, before he would have left his comrades and complete the mission but thanks to Obito he learned to put the lives of his comrades first.

Itachi even said he failed because he tried to do everything himself instead of having Sasuke help him, a Hokage can't have that "I'll do it myself" attitude. Itachi didn't learn this until he was already a Edo tensei and even told Naruto this and that one doesn't become Hokage and get acknowledged but once one is acknowledged, they will become Hokage. Pretty much once others see you as a leader who they would want to follow then you are worthy to be Hokage. Itachi was never shown to be friendly with villagers or have their loyalty. When Pein when to Konoha and literally tortured/threaten many ninjas, none of them would give Naruto up and all praised him after he defeated Nagato. Shikamaru even told his dad how being with Naruto makes him want to follow him, if he never told Shikaku that then he wouldn't have let Naruto go after Nagato alone ant Nagato most likely would have killed them all.

He would have been better to put after Minato to calm down the Uchiha after the Kyuubi attack/discrimination, instead of old Hiruzen which just gets manipulated/tricked by Danzo all the time.

Itachi was 5-6 at that time, he didn't have hokage reasoning until 7 and by that time many people distrusted the Uchihas because only the Sharingan had the power to control Kurama. Also Itachi lacked the experience and power of a ninja at that time.

Itachi was 5 when Hiruzen stepped down.

So there's saying a 5 year old Itachi should have became Hokage lol Hiruzen said Itachi had the reasoning of a Hokage at 7 which is after Hiruzen reinstated as Hokage .

If Itachi knew Konoha would be cause of 3rd shinobi war, then he would slaughter entire population of konoha leaving only his brother. hahaha that's why Itachi can't be a good hokage candidate.

No Itachi is weak minded willing to be put at bay just look what Danzo "made" him "do" to his family when there was other way's to prevent the tragedy. Itachi mind was not right this thread makes me mad I feel like breaking this computer

Itachi would be the most fair of Kages. "Oh, are you rebelling? Well, time to murder your whole family, for the sake of the village."

you have to remember his age, he was quite young and of course we know now that he had the potential to be a great Kage

Minato and Itachi are both awful choices. What a sad time for Konoha.

A Orochimaru Kage before he became twisted and plotted with Danzo would've been good. Shame.
