Madara seemed to be too clan-focused to unite a village that consisted of multiple clans. His tendency toward cynicism would have also made for perhaps even more tension and disputes between Konoha and the other hidden villages.

If you consider totalitarianism good, then yes, he'd make a great hokage.

Hashirama, Tobirama, pretty much anyone but Madara. He was under Black Zetsu's influence. Things would not have gone well.

Madara may have not been evil if he was Hokage. He wouldn't be better though.

Definitely, everything he said came true. He intially left because he was afraid Tobirama would oppress his clan. If he was the Hokage, he would've made sure everyone was equal.

Hell to the no. Hashirama was more suitable, everyone in the village was saying it.

Hashirama only wanted madara to be the hokage so he could be one step closer to breaking the curse of hatred
actually, you're wrong. Hashirama wanted Madara to be Shodai to help him get past what happened to Izuna, and the villagers preferred him because they anointed him as being the 1 person who founded the place. It is never said they did it out of a belief that Hashirama was the more suitable guy. That's just another misconception brought on by ppl's own opinion.

No, he had too many mood swings like a thot on her period. Here's a list of Uchiha who would have made a good hokage: Obito, Shisui, and possibly Kagami.
none of those dudes should be anywhere in that discussion as far as i'm concerned, especially Shisui. To be a young MS user and get owned by anyone past 40 is just straight up pathetic, idc what kind of hype they got.


@Ayatori, no, the reason he became bad was due to the Tablet. He'd still become bad regardless of becoming Hokage or not.
that's false, because if he hadn't heard what he did when he ear hustled on Hashirama and Tobirama's convo, he wouldn't have been inclined to go back and read the whole thing. That incident is what convinced Madara to take a better look at that tablet, so to speak in absolutes either way is speculative at best because he was never interested in being Hokage anyway.

nope. madara was terrible leader even for his clan.
the only problem Madara had was that all of the Uchiha who had stones were dead by the time Konoha was founded.

Hashirama, Tobirama, pretty much anyone but Madara.
i find it adorable how stuff like this get said, and the guys who were actually Hokage prior to Minato did their fair share of driving the place into the ground.
He was under Black Zetsu's influence. Things would not have gone well.
how was he under Black Zetsu's influence prior to Shodai being chosen? hmm

It's adorable that people think Hashirama, Tobirama, and Hiruzen are better Hokages than Madara would be? The things people say on here :|
And he would have been soon as he read the stone. Same as it ever was.

He woudn't do anything worse than the elected Hokages. Hokages fought three shinobi wars (failed to achieve the peace) and also failed to stop later violence and incidents.

And also if Madara was Hokage,there would be no such thing as Uchiha masacre or Kurama incident

It would have been better for him to have been the Hokage, but he wouldn't have been a better Hokage than Hashirama. I could actually see Madara being better though.

yeah, because like i said, those dudes did their fair share in helping drive the place to the ground. Konoha used to be at the top, and now it's middle of the road at best.
And he would have been soon as he read the stone. Same as it ever was.
you don't know that, namely because if Tobirama wasn't so petty about the idea of an Uchiha being Hokage and put his racism aside, Madara would've been convinced the experiment would work and there wouldn't be a need in the world for him to so much as look at that tablet. So like i said before, speaking about whether he'd be a good or bad one is entirely speculative. I don't see how he could've done any worse than the first 2 or 3 guys that actually had that rank.

You're implying Madara would have done better. I should have stopped reading there.

But I didn't. Soon as Madara reads the stone monument, Black Zetsu has him. We all know he'd read it.

Stopped reading at Tobirama's racism.

it's clear you have problems with reading comprehension, understanding English, or both because apparently you have problems understanding what "speaking about whether he'd be a good or bad one is entirely speculative." means. That is stating no one can say either way, be it good or bad, about a situation that never happened nor would ever happen because Madara was never interested in the position. Do you have problems understand what that means?

Stopped reading at Tobirama's racism.
Racism:1.The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.

2.Discrimination or prejudice based on race.

- ? Racism.
- ? Racism.
- ? Racism.

I can see why you might have stopped reading, because that would conflict with you believing you're right.

Black Zetsu watched over the uchiha ever since being created he says, even some of the senju.
It's clear BZ would take advantage over maddy, like he said himself "Those who love more and lose that love have more hatred to control" or some crap along the lines, yeah ya get it.


Basically we have Zestu standing over maddy since birth, heck all of the uchiha.
At this time maddy was at the top of his clan, who dafuq thinks zetsu is gonna ignore him after his fights with hashi and owning the clan?


This boils down to a mere would a Zetsu emotionally unstable puppet be a better hokage than the 1st/2nd.
