 I like Ron, I really do, but I think many of his fans want to make 
him out to be more than he actually is.  Harry is the brawn, Hermione 
the brains and I'm sorry, but Ron is the comic relief.Have you ever 
seen any of the old old westerns.  Roy Rodgers, Gene Autry,  Hopalong 
Cassidy, Cisco Kid.  These movies all had one thing in common.  The 
hero  had a well intentioned sidekick who always came through when 
needed, but most of the time he was just there to provide laughs.  
 
 Ron is there for the laughs.  Harry is there to fight the villains.  
And as Rowling has said Harry needs Hermione.  I'd miss him and all 
the laughs, but for the most part Ron has not been an important part 
to the outcome of any of the books.  He has just been there. 








Yeah I love Ron too and in the books he does fill this role and he is 
hilarious in OtoP and that is needed and it will be needed in HBP and 
Book7 as the books are getting an increasing edge and you need comedy 
to balance that.

  If you poke around enough HP MBs and websites you find that they're 
fans that think the books should be 'Ronald Weasley and...' 
or 'Hermione Granger and...' or Draco Malfoy and...' or 
even 'Serverus Snape and...' . But there not. They are called 'Harry 
Potter and...'
