@Rachin, he's a fantastic leader who's good at inspiring his followers, and he's calm in the face of impending threats. Those are good qualities for Hokage.

He's also still an extremely capable Shinobi without the Sharingan. Lack of a Sharingan doesn't make him a worse Shinobi, it adds to his stamina and subtracts from his arsenal. But he's still got his intelligence, his jutsu, and his keen senses. He just can last longer now.

His intellect doesn't make him less suited for Hokage than Jonin Commander.
