[Discussion] Were the Uchiha's Right

[Oriver]

They were one of the two strongest clans.

At the time they were thinking of doing the Coup . . .
They were nothing more than security guards.
Two Senju were Hokage. . then they chose someone from a 'lesser house'
[neither Senju nor Uchiha . . . ]
Then second Hokage from a lesser house [The 4th was neither Senju nor Uchiha]

They obviously had no representation on the Council
[I'm sure an Uchiha on the council would have warned them]

I think Itachi was they 'great hope' to have a Uchiha as Hokage
but . .. they kind of did not think the other would let it happen

So, what do you want to say with this?

[Champ]

The Uchiha's are always right

[Sasuke Ninja Way Reborn]

The Uchihas were right... the Senjus back stab them the same people who helped built Konoha from the ground.

OK I'll send a paragraph to the manga author and ask him about that...

the senju clan is the true evil in naruto

The Hokage is a title that is earned through skill. Senju Hashirama beat Madara's ass all over the Valley of the End, Tobirama was probably the strongest shinobi in the village once Hashi/Madara died, Hiruzen wasn't known as the Kami No Shinobi for no reason and I didn't see Kagami perking up to sacrifice himself, and there was no Uchiha remotely capable of matching Minato in sheer skill. So...Why should an Uchiha have been Hokage when as far as we know, none of them earned the position?

***** please......Hashirama was made a Hokage before his fight with Madara he never earned the Hokage title and obviously Madara could have killed him, but it was thanks to his DNA that Madara let him live and Tobirama got his ass killed by Kinkaku and Gunkaku where Darui defeat both of them and when did Hizuzen earned the title of Hokage because all i remember was Tobirama made him the next Hokage. Minato can't even go one on one against Itachi. So tell me how did any of those shit heads earned anything.

No, the title of Hokage is not promised to any clan and shouldn't be. on the other hand it is possible that they were being discriminated and kept outside, not playing alpha dogs which would be sth that would piss them big time and rightly so.

in other words, if they were indeed victims of discrimination over the decades then, yes, they were right. but this doesn't mean that the Uchihas or any other clan (cough*senjus*cough) should just be granted the title of Hokage.

Huh. It's been a while since I encountered an Uchiha-tard of your caliber. First, Hashirama fought Madara dozens of times before the Valley of the End. Even if one didn't kill the other that doesn't mean there wasn't a clear victor. And he let him live for his DNA? He could have gotten all the DNA he wanted from his corpse if he could have killed him. Orochimaru certainly managed well enough.

Also Tobirama was not killed by Kinkaku or Ginkaku. He was killed by the Kinkaku Force, which was composed of at least 20 highly skilled shinobi of Kumo. A far cry from two people.

Hiruzen earned the Title. I don't think Tobirama randomly decided to give it to him. Given that he eventually became known as the Kami No Shinobi, I'd say that's a pretty good indicator of his skill.

And Minato wouldn't have stood a chance against Itachi? Considering they never even fought, that's not even worth arguing. Plus, Itachi was an infant when Minato was made Hokage. So that's totally irrelevant. Annd I think wiping out entire armies of Iwa Nin counts as earning the title.
