They could be the heirs, but I have many doubts about this being something 
really important.

>He made a special effort to get rid of James and Harry (...)

Im not so sure that his efforts were to get rid of Harry AND James. I think 
that Voldemort only wished to get rid of Harry and his parents got in the 
way ( all the books states that Lily didnt have to die, but if Im not 
mistaken Voldemort never states that *exactly*. He always tell about how 
Harrys *parents* were stupid or didnt need to die. The only time we hear 
Voldemort saying  Lily didnt have to die is in Harrys memory of that day. 
But, of course, Im not sure about this and I have big possibilities of 
being very wrong; if I am, please tell me)

My *theory*
First some things that I got from the books:
-In PS I think Hagrid mentioned something about Voldemort... that it was odd 
that he didnt try to approach the Potters before (and it *seems* to me that 
he had plenty of time to do this). And in PoA (or GoF,  Im not quite sure) 
it says that it was just a year before the death of Harry parents that a spy 
  (Peter) began to give  Voldemort information about Dumbledores group, 
and, if Im not mistaken, that is at least close to Harrys birth day.
-In PoA Dumbledore says something about the divination professor. When Harry 
tells about her *prophecy*, Dumbledore says something about that being the  
second one. So what's the first one?
-In PS when Harry asks to Dumbledore why Voldemort want him, Dumbledore says 
that he cannot tell him at that time, that when he became older he would 
know.


Now, Voldemort had, at least, 20 years (probably more) to prepare himself, 
to make his plans to take over the world, to gather the necessary 
information, before he began his rise as the dark lord, and I assume that if 
the heirs were important he would have made a research about who they were 
and  attacked them first. So why havent he attacked the Potters before? Why 
havent he shown interest in them before Harry was born?

All this make me believe that the first prophecy of the divination professor 
was about Harry (and the dark lord). When he was born, Peter for some reason 
got afraid (maybe he misunderstood the prophecy...or no), and thought that 
it was better to stay in the dark lord side.
So Peter tells Voldemort about the prophecy and Harry, and since then 
becomes a spy. Voldemort then prepares himself to kill Harry. Dumbledores 
spies inform him about that and Dumbledore began to try to protect the 
Potters, until they finally decide to cast the charm of the secret 
keeper.(You know what happens, and) Then Voldemort goes to the Potters with 
the intention to kill Harry.

Maybe Voldemort killed all the Potter family, but I believe that it was just 
in order to find out where Harry was. And about the heir thing, I believe 
the Potter family could be the heir of Gryffindor but that wouldnt be of 
extreme importance as I said before(IMHO)

Sorry if this was already discussed here (Im new here btw) and sorry if my 
ideas were not organized properly, and sorry(this is the last)  for my poor 
English skills.
