Though currently, my preferable way is that Naruto is the last Hokage period. It's clear in movie, anime and manga that the position of Hokage has become too big for a human to fill. If even Naruto, who can be everywhere, is taxed too hard by the position, it ought to be changed. It would be fitting too, that Naruto achieves his dream and becomes not the hokage, but THE Hokage -the last.

The constant passing on is a nice idea, but there are a number of very uncomfortable and unfortunate implications. The Hokage was initially a President (person elected by the village), but in recent years it's more akin to royalty (inherited position). It also has unfortunate implications for Madara (He realized quickly that no uchiha would ever be Hokage, and 7 iterations later is still right), the Uchiha (they never realistically had a chance to contribute at the highest level and change their unfortunate position), but also everyday people (apparently if you're not connected to at least one Kage, you'll never be one yourself).
