Ron as prefect... and then some

My husband has such a great, uncomplicated view of the Potter 
stories. He's a financial wizard (pardon the pun!) who used to read 
newspapers and financial journals only until I introducted him to 
Harry Potter. And while we, in this group, all enjoy picking the 
books to pieces and wondering about the "why's" and "wherefores", my 
man just says it as he sees it! (for instance: Hermione belongs with 
Harry because she's so smart and he's the HERO!). His biggest bone 
of contention with OOTP so far is not the fact that Ron is a prefect 
(though he says that, next to Hermione, Harry really deserved that 
honor), but that Draco Malfoy is a prefect! "What was Dumbledore 
thinking?" said my spouse... and he's right, IMO. Dumbledore, who is 
supposed to know his students well, appointed a Slytherin prefect 
who is a proven bully and who's father is a Death Eater! Were there 
no other deserving students in Slytherin House? Shame on Dumbledore!
(I stopped liking the man after reading OOTP!!!)
Just my 2 cents worth.
