This also fits into the parallel somebody drew on another thread, where TR 
was "headmaster's pet" but had one teacher who did not like him--D-dore, who 
eventually became headmaster.  Harry is kinda "headmaster's pet" but has one 
teacher who does not like him--Snape.   Will he eventually become 
headmaster?  Interesting thought!

Then either no one at all believes that Snape is actually trying to save the 
WW and Harry, because they know his past; or they believe AD's assertion 
that Snape is a good guy and blindly follow him, when actually he is a bad 
guy.  Either way it could be good plot twists.
