Even if Jon is the trueborn son of Rhaegar and Lyanna, there are some obvious problems:


 * Will Rhaegar and Lyanna's marriage even be recognized as a true marriage? He was already married to Elia Martell. Polygamy was practiced years ago.


 * What evidence is there that Jon is Rhaegar and Lyanna's son to the people of Westeros?

And, of course, will Jon even want the Iron Throne? Honestly, I don't think so. Which I don't mind. He's fine as he is.
