[(Anonymous)]

The fact that her father WAS mad and terrible and awful in every way isn't something to be brushed over--it's very important to why the people she wants to rule don't want to be ruled by her.

If she just wanted a home, everything you're saying would be enough. But if she wants to rule Westeros, she needs to earn Westeros, and that means winning the people, who have already decided they were done with Targaryen-style rule.

Except those same people loves Rhaegar and would have been perfectly happy to live under his rule. They are not necessarily opposed to Targaryens. Those same people are currently living under the rule of CERSEI. As an aside, Cersei is very obviously a narrative foil to Dany - an example of an ACTUAL mad queen who cares far more about her own power and comfort than any subject, whom she views as her personal totally expendable pawns. Dany has demonstrated time and time again that she will make heavy sacrifices - including her own campaign for the throne - for the wellbeing of her people.

The land of ASOIAF is feudal and Dany is royalty. She has grown up under the assumption that this is her birthright and it was taken from her, in a way that completely ruined her life. Yes she wants to rule Westeros. By all the cultural standards WITHIN CANON, she is entitled to that. Her home and her birthright are synonymous to her.
