He *was* unfortunate to end up with Lucius as his father, but he does have a 
choice, and the older he gets, the more his own views should take over.

If all kids ended up being carbon copies of their parents, it would be 
different, but that's definitely not the case.

Me:

I believe that sometime in the future Draco will really and truly understand 
what his father is doing and he really is.  I'm sure he has an idea at this 
time but maybe not to the full extent as an adult would see it.  He does act 
like the bully in school and says things like "Mudblood" and makes fun of 
Ron, but I think also that sometime Draco will have to choose between what 
is right and what is easy...just as Dumbledore says.  What is easy being 
what his father has chosen and what is right is realizing what the Death 
Eaters are doing to so many families.  He might realize what is the right 
thing in the end or at least to a certain degree.  He may still act like the 
bully but realize that he does not want to be a follower of Lord Voldemort.
