>From reading GoF, Pettigrew tried to talk V into using any other 
wizard but Harry because of the difficulty in getting to Harry to 
obtain his blood for the regeneration spell. V agreed that that would 
be easier , but I think he specifically preferred Harry for reasons 
that were never really fleshed out in the text. The conclusion that I 
came to was that perhaps the blood from whatever wizard he obtained 
added to whatever powers V already had, and since Harry has been 
successful thus far in blocking V's efforts ( whether via luck vs. 
ability, I think its inconclusive at this point) he chose Harry on 
the off chance that Harry truly has amazing powers. I think he wants 
those powers as his own in the new body as V sees Harry as his only 
real possible future enemy that could beat him. 
   As for what V's ultimate goal is, other than gaining a new body 
and reclaiming his strength and ability prior to his discorporation, 
I have no idea. I gathered that other than gaining control over the 
wizarding world, that V resents having to hide from muggles as he 
sees them as inferior and has deep psychological hang-ups regarding 
his muggle father rejecting his wizard mother. In reading GoF , 
Dumbledore mentions reading the muggle news because he is looking for 
any odd instances where muggles have had run-ins with the weakened V( 
ex- the caretaker who was killed under mysterious circumstances, Mr 
Weasley having to memory wipe the muggles who saw the trash cans 
attacking Moody when captured by Crouch Jr.)V having grown up as TR 
in muggle surroundings probably wants to take over both wizarding and 
muggle worlds with wizards being the ruling race. I suppose that is 
his ultimate way of recociling the total lack of control he had as a 
child growing up in an orphanage, but thats just a guess. So why is 
it so important to V to be doing what he is doing, in gaining 
immortality? What will having immortality help him achieve? What kind 
of crazy is that? Anyone else out there have any better explainations 
or theories?
