surly Gai will be able to destroy Itachi? i mena in the sasuke-Lee fight we clearly see that the Sharinigaran (sorry for the terrible spelling) is no use against someone who is just faster to the point where the other person can not defend. also why are people mentioning oro, itachi and fish face in the running for Hokage? they are bad guys and no longer are part of the village, therefore they wont be counted. also just because itachi can murder kureni in a seeming easy manner doesnt mean that she isnt the strongest in the village (iam nto saying she is, just that Itachi isnt part of the village so being beaten by him doesnt take you out of the running for Hokage).
