Me:

I have a very farfetched theory about this.
It's really so farfetched that I can't really believe it myself, but 
it is a possibility, I guess.
What if Dumbledore is the future Ron?

Let's say that Voldemort is about to kill Harry and noone knows where 
they are, except for Ron, who is with them.
Ron, desperate to save Harry, tries going back in time to do just 
this, but accidently goes too far back.
About 130 years too far.

When he realizes where (well, when) he is, who would he first try to 
find? Marty in BTTF tries to find the doc. Well, the doc in this 
case, is Dumbledore.
But he can't find Dumbledore. Dumbledore is a tall, redhaired (well, 
auburn in CoS) ~17-year old. Ron is a tall, redhaired 17-year old.
Ron already knows everything that has happened, and he knows that the 
only way to save Harry is to wait 130 years, since he can't, for some 
reason, go back to the future.

That's when it hits him. Why did Dumbledore always seem to know 
everything beforehand? Because HE was with Harry when it happened, 
and the things he didn't see for himself, Harry told him. 
Ron is Dumbledore.

Though, Dumbledore!Ron would never have gone to Hogwarts, would he? 
He needs help to set this up. Who was Dumbledore's partner? Nicolas 
Flamel. Still very much alive.
He finds him, explains certain pieces to him, and lives the rest of 
his life as Dumbledore.

When Harry attends Hogwarts, Ron!Dumbledore DOES know everything, and 
when Voldemort is about to finish Harry off, he storms in and saves 
him.
Or, if he's dead, he's told someone of the old crowd to save him.
Ron!Dumbledore tells him everything. The End.
