Few people in Gondor know Aragorn, and so they don`t know what kind of leader he is. I believe that when he led them to the Black Gate, they saw that he was useful in war.

I definately would agree, The Black Gate victory got Aragorn the support he needed. Showed everyone he was a capable leader and fighter. Which I ask, do you have to be a "successful" warrior to hold high political office? Boromir was High Warden of the White Tower (I love that fancy title), Elrond and Galadriel have already shown their capabilities...etc.
I think another fancy move by Aragorn was when Imrahil asked for him to enter the city and claim the throne, he did not, he camped outside.
