Of course I could! In fact, I urge all of you to get on board for the big win now so you won’t have to face the dire consequences of opposing my benevolent guidance. After all, we must prepare ourselves for the threat posed by backwards-talking green guys of mysterious origin. I’m pretty sure they have, like, nukes and anthrax and lasers stuff, and I’m the only one who can protect you.
I’m sorry, what were we talking about?
Yoda you cannot shoot.
Six more weeks of bad weather we would have.

Must… Stop… laughing…
my side hurts. and my cat is scared.
Unless you’re watching Clone Wars. shudders
You wish you were Yoda.
With Frank Oz’s hand up my ass? I think not. 
I don’t think he’d try to force a takeover at all. What he’d do is use his wisdom and gentlehearted asskicking skills, and his charismatic similarities to Gandhi, to build up a huge army of humans to do his bidding. Then he’d get his own country, and it would run well. And then it would become perfectly clear that he can defend himself extremely well. And I expect he’d start training up a bunch of Jedi too, using whoever he decides would be suitable. Eventually, while he might not end up an actual official ruler, he’d be totally in charge of a vast worldwide network of asskicking Jedi - and up against only puny humans.
Master Yoda is… a groundhog? 
Wow…that explains so much!
I understand all 6 movies so much better now!
Thanks, carnivorousplant.
To fight ignorance, my purpose in life is.
Spoiler warning!
Eh most of the jedi masters got taken out fairly easy in Revenge of the Sith, granted Yoda is more powerful than your average Jedi master it still would still not take too( though larger than the handfull that did attack him) large a group of soldiers with blasters.
