JKR keeps describing Albus Dumbledore as "weary" and "tired".  Of 
course, people automatically assume he's really old which he probably 
is hence the really long beard and white hair.

So I'm just wondering, when is Dumbledore going to die? the 5th book? 
Probably not in my view, since there's still the 6th and 7th book to 
go.

Then the beloved Harry Potter will have to fight Voldemort without 
the headmaster's help, and that doesn't seem right until the final 
battle. 

What do you think? Should Dumbledore die to help Harry realize that 
without a lot of help from others, he's just a wizard and not much 
else? 

[Personally, I'm not a huge fan of Harry-The-Prophesized-Boy-Who-
Saves-The-Wizarding-World.]
