Me: 

Wow, sent shivers down my spine as well! There's two things I've 
found to contradict the theory, though. 

One is that Dumbledore is described as having blue eyes (light, 
bright, and sparkling)SS/PS Chp 1. 

Secondly, in GoF, Dumbledore mentions his own brother, Aberforth. 
Chpt 24.

Neither is concrete evidence however. I don't ever remember any 
mention of the color of Ron's eyes. But, I would say light, bright 
blue eyes on a flaming red hair boy would be a rather significant 
trait worth mentioning. 

Also, obviously if Ron is really Dumbledore, than the name 
Dumbledore isn't real and we can guess Aberforth probably isn't 
either. Which makes me wonder, which of Ron's brothers would have 
been prosecuted for practicing innapropriate charms on a goat?? Fred 
or George? Albus quips, "I'm not entirely sure he can read, so that 
may not have been bravery." Literally, it wouldn't apply to any of 
the Weasley boys, but I can certainly see Ron using a joke like that 
at their expense. 

As long as we're watching for clues to Ron!Dumbledore, keep an eye 
out for Broken-Nose!Ron.  DD's nose was also described as looking 
like it had been broken twice.
