    I believe Iroh should be more like the Ambassador or General of Defenses. He is too old to be Lord. He is a p1mP though. Zuko has better leadership.
    No he doesn't. Iroh used to be a feared general, which indicates leadership skills, Zuko has led his ship to many failures. Also if you think who has more wisdom and experience than obviously Iroh deserves it, with Zuko serving as crown prince, so when Iroh dies Zuko gets the throne.

    Zuko would most likely be Fire Lord. He has evolved from a troubled prince to a wise leader. I don't know what happens to Iroh though.

    But I think Iroh would be Fire Lord. Zuko has too much trouble making up his mind about stuff. We need someone who can commit to stuff.

    Unless Iroh dies, then if Ursa's still alive, they should change the monarchy rules and have her be Fire Lady.

    A women as Fire Lord? that's ridiculous, they'll have a black man before that happens! (cookie to whoever gets the reference)

    Are you refering to the Democratic race for the nomination in the US? If so, then I want my cookie!

    I think Zuko will make a fine Firelord, so long as he doesn't betray the gaang again. He has suffered for the most part of his life and as he said that makes him strong. He will do fine.

    Ah, damn! I was thinking that but then I thought "Nah, it must be from a movie or TV show or something. It's too obvious to be about that."

    I'm an idiot..

    He's only 16 do you really think he would make a better firelord that Iroh?

    He's teaching Aang not leading him. The temple it was both working as a team, and the Boiling Rock I seem to remember Sokka coming up with all the plans. Zuko just gave bad advice.

    Not led specifically, but he getting there. Zuko was the one who thought the plans through (taking his war balloon instead of Appa).

    Well, in a certain sense, Ozai is a usurper...which means Iroh technically is the Fire Lord now. So the throne could be his, in a perfect world. But for the sake of the plotline, Zuko was given that Crown Prince Head Piece for a reason.

    Its simple though it took me a while to get it.

    The world was thrown out of balance when the firelord betrayed his friend the Avatar. Zuko finally decided to teach Aang firebending and will start to form some sort of bond of friendship. Finally Zuko will become the firelord when Aang restores peace and their friendship will be part of the new balance.

    I didn't think about that. I suppose that after Ozai's gone, someone could proclaim it a democracy (or however that might work). But would Iroh be the one to do it?

    I dont think Irohs interested in being Firelord so it doesn't matter even though he probably deserves it more.

    That is true. But if Iroh were to become firelord wouldn't Zuko become the crown prince again so he can learn from Iroh and when he dies Zuko is ready for the throne.
