No.

Sasuke is a terrible candidate for Hokage. Absolutely horrendous. His attack on the Five Kage Summit would be akin to one of us going to a meeting of the United Nations, with all those heads of states, just start blowing shit up.

Know where that will land you?

Dead.

Labeled an international terrorist, and rightly so, just as Sasuke way. He tried to kill Naruto, a Konoha shinobi, during their first reunion. Tried to kill Sakura, a Konoha chunin, during their reunion after the Summit. In the same meeting, he tried to (and publicly stated his intent to) kill Kakashi, a famed Konoha jonin and candidate Hokage. Let's not forget that, despite how big a douchebag he was, he killed Danzo; one of the elders of Konoha.

Did I miss something?

Oh, yes. He made an assassination attempt at B (I consider the capture of a jinchuriki an assassination attempt, given the end result of a successful capture); an integral member of Kumogakure, causing an international incident, not to mention that in doing so he attacked several other Kumogakure shinobi to learn B's location, and attempted to take their tailed beast from them for Akatsuki.

Resurrecting Orochimaru is a big no-no despite the help it brought the war since, for all Sasuke or anyone else knew, Orochimaru could've started a killing spree that made the war worse. Given his criminal nature, it wouldn't have been beyond him to do so.

And the fact that you discredit his "plan" to destroy Konoha is hilarious. He told three Konoha shinobi (his former teammates, I might add) that he planned to kill every last man, woman, and child in Konoha and then burn the village to the ground. If a solider from our military told any of his fellow soldiers that, I can guarantee you he'd be brought up for treason, arrested, and imprisoned for that alone.

Point of all of this?

Sasuke being a candidate for Hokage is about as likely as my future acting career. Non-existent. It'd be like the United States capturing Saddam Hussein and then making him President of the United States. It just isn't happening.

Sasuke is starting to come around (maybe?) but the point is, the guy has a soul blacker than my morning coffee, so just no.
