Wouldn't Shikamaru make the best leader of Konoha?

[Destroyor]

Shikamaru still doesn't have the experience nor knowledge to be either the hokage or the hokage's right hand man. To be a war general of sort one not only have to understand tactic to outthink your enemy, one also need to understand all the infomations coming in and the both enemy troops and your own troops. When will they tired? How long can your man endure continous battle? Your enemy? How do you supply an army of ninja? Etc etc etc. Shikamaru is just wayyyyy toooo inexperience to be anything other then a weak chuunin right now.


10 or 20 years in the field in active duty later then maybe Shikamaru would qualify, but by then he'll probably have kids and a family already and planning retirement. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

How smart do you think Shikamaru's dad is?

Nah, Shino dun have the people skills to be Hokage. And All Shika has is 1 skill. I know thats kinda speaking too early, what with Naruto failing the Genin entrance exam and everything, but when your at Chuunin level, and all you can do is bind shadows... Hokage isn't your line of work. Now, I forget his name, but the dude that is all scarred up, the Sadist. That could be Shikamaru's job.
