Tsunade is a bad Hokage

1) The missions were unknown but all the shinobis of jonin rank were already being assigned S rank missions. Kakashi before going to the aid of Naruto turned down a ninja scroll with a mission on it with the letter "S" clearly printed on it. The war was over but the leaf had to do recovery missions, securing the borders from invading ninja, remember a war did just happen... many shinobis died, their was not an abundance of qualified shinobi. The sound 4 were not elite shinobi it is well proven just by the fact that they even lost to 3 genin and a chunin. They lost to Choji... they were not that powerful. Naruto has been on 2 A rank missions, and he is still only of genin rank. (Zabuza mission, and the tracking gaara mission both A rank) They were no longer enemies of the hidden leaf. The hidden sand had sent a formal apology and surrender to the hidden leaf village after the invasion. The fact that Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari did not kill any of the leaf's genins shows that they were not the enemy. Temari, Kankuro and Gaara are only genin at the time because they did not take the chunin exams the year before,in order to have a reason to enter the chunin exams next year in preparation for war time. It has been already said that Temari could already be a chunin if the sand had not forced her to hold off taking the test till next year. Before the end of the Naruto series leading up to shippuuden and before Naruto's departure from the hidden leaf with Jiraiya. Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro had already become instructors and had subordinates at the hidden sand. They were well qualified ninja to help the genin team that were pursuing Sasuke. The fact that Sasuke saw Itachi and their power gap showed that Sasuke would forever be in that state of mind. Sasuke wanted to kill Itachi more than anything, friendship was not going to change his mind. His brother killed his mom, dad, relatives and everyone he cared about for god sakes, you think anyone can heal from that sort of trauma? Sasuke would go to Orochimaru again, because Orochimaru at the time was probably considered the most powerful shinobi in the known ninjaworld for killing both the 4th Kazekage, and the 3rd Hokage. The leaf do not have the heart to forcibly detain Sasuke, Kakashi and the rest of the Jonins would protest it, Naruto would protest it, and the Genin population would protest it. Tsunade would not even have the heart to forcibly detain Sasuke from leaving. The Leaf is a moral village. Your explanations on why my examples are bad, are bad. How is it defeating Madara if the 1st hokage dies and Madara lives? If I fight you Con and I killed you did I lose the fight? No, of course not because obviously I would be the winner. The Uchiha had already accepted the Senju, due to the fact that they ignored Madara's pleas to revolt and reclaim their power. The 2nd hokage made them the police of the village, but he put constant ANBU black ops to monitor their actions by putting them all in the outskirts of the village where they were segregated from the rest of the village. This segregation of the Uchiha led to the eventual hatred from the Uchiha. Third tried to make peace but ultimately "FAILED", it does not matter how much he tried, the 3rd could not control the chaos in his own village in his time of rule. The 4th did not need to die. He felt it would be wrong to live and his wife die, while the village suffers from a loss of power from not having a tailed beast, so he sacrificed himself to seal the fox into Naruto. 4th saved the village from the fox this is true, but he didn't need to die for it, that was a decision he made on his own. Tsunade inherited the problems of the previous Hokages dealings with the Uchiha. If the previous Hokages had done a better job and stopped hiding under the "But, we tried" excuse, Tsunade wouldn't even have a Sasuke problem. Tsunade did the best she could in a quick situation, assembling a ninja team would take time and effort considering she had to pull ninjas that were already on high ranking missions. Tsunade sent 8 ninjas (Naruto, Neji, Shikamaru, Choji, Rock Lee, Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari) to pursue the sound 4. The mission was to retrieve Sasuke, Sasuke did not want to be retrieved it was not Tsunade's fault that Sasuke did not want to be "saved". 2) Again we go back to the history of the past hokages who failed to control their men. 1st Hokage could not control Madara led to his death 3rd Hokage could not control Orochimaru led to his death Naruto did not get captured though, Kakashi did his job as his protector, Tsunade's decision has not been proven to be a bad one. Tsunades trust in Kakashi's abilities were shown in Naruto's return to the village unharmed. No mission goes flawlessly, the main point is to complete them. Tsunade is not the only leader with anger issues, I have already shown this using the other leaders as examples. Tsunade's anger leads to passion, passion that gets passed onto the entire village, which is necessary to motivate the next generation. 4) I have already addressed this, Tsunade has not gambled money once after becoming Hokage, and to assume she will return to her old ways cannot be proven by Con. That is not fair to say Tsunade did nothing to help the village, She did not even know a war was going on. The entire leaf Sannin had already left the village by that time to pursue other ventures in their lives. 5) Tsunade was not even the 5th Hokage yet when this happened. We are judging her term as the 5th hokage so far, so far she has made the best possible decisions given the situations at hand. 6) Danzo does not like the fact that he was never named the Hokage. If he really cared about the village he would have helped the village during Pein's invasion. The reason he was not made the 5th hokage was because Jiraiya and Tsunade were better candidates, he could not fight the candidacy of the leaf's legendary Sannin at his old age. TSUNADE is the Hokage, the elders and the entire village should be the one's listening to her. She was taught by the 3rd Hokage and has the same moral principles as he does. The elders do not have any trust in the youth of the hidden leaf, zilch, nothing they are not even fit to be advisors because of this fact. The village elders right now should be ashamed they have disgraced the teachings of their sensei (1st and 2nd hokage) colleague (3rd Hokage) and lost the treasured "Will of Fire" philosophy in the hidden leaf. The village elders see the error in their ways when Tsunade finally scolds them. May I remind you Con... If Tsunade had not taken Naruto out on all those important missions having him gain all that experience and power, nobody would have been able to fight Pein. If the Elders got their way, Pein would have eventually came to the Hidden Leaf Village and tried to take Naruto anyway. If the Elders got their way, Naruto would have never returned to the hidden leaf village at all. All of the elders decisions to "help" the hidden leaf village would have ultimately led to their downfall if Tsunade had not protested. Tsunade knows what she is doing. She was the only ninja in the hidden leaf who would have been fully accepted by the Leaf's jonin to become Hokage. Tsunade has not done a bad job, she has healed severe injuries, and works fully on progressing the future generations of the hidden leaf.
