Plausible is derived from a word meaning ‘deserving applause’ I believe both are correct, but I would consider the first slightly more elegant.

Hi Jeanine,
I'd say that your question has more to do with the word 'consider' than 'plausible'. I agree with hitchhiker that both are correct, but I'd go with the first one. When you 'consider A as B', usually B is something different from A.
