Just one quick snip here because I think this shows where I think you
(Del) have gone off the track a bit.

See, I now have to ask--what are you hoping for if you sound to me
like you're admiting that JKR's Ron is likely not *your* Ron?  Do you
forsake the rest of the books now and vow your eyes only to fanfic? 
JKR's Ron is the ONLY Ron there is.   You and I can speculate all day
long on what he might become (canon fodder in the war or a hero the
likes of tales for ages to come) but it's all just speculation and Ron
is still only what he's been shown to be in the past books.  Unlike a
real person, his future is not up to him, it is up to the author.  So,
if you're saying that JKR is prejudiced against Ron in your opinion
and view, than I'd say it's time to just fret more about his future in
canon than other readers seeing him as less than you do.  

(I am sooo not trying to sound snarky or mean here and I guess, as
you've been Ron's vocal defender today, I am addressing you in regards
to comments I've seen made by others, far and wide over the past year
both here and elsewhere.  I just think authorial intent can tell us an
awful lot about what to expect.)

respectfully, 
Arya
