Personally I think that Draco was appointed a prefect for the only 
reason that Dumbledore wanted to keep him visible. I don't know less 
chance for him plotting conspiracies...


I find it very hard to believe that Dumbledore thinks that Draco is 
really capable of setting ANY kind of example for younger students.

We only see Draco through Harry's eyes, that is true, but we not only 
hear Harry's impressions of Draco, we also see Draco's actions and 
him spatting "mudblood" is, IMO, impossible, to justify.
