Del, Del, Del....It seems to me after reading a good portion of your 
posts that you're making it seem as if Ron should be the *central* 
character in the HP series...IMO!  It's called Harry Potter 
and "___" for a reason.   It's essentially about Harry Potter 
and his life and all that it entails.  His POV, his interpretations 
of events, and his experiences are all important to the series.  

With out him there really wouldn't be one now would there?  In most 
of your posts it has been 'Ron *deserves* this' 'Ron *needs* 
this' 'He has to *have* that''It wouldn't be fair to Ron if this 
happened'...and so on!  Let's build a bridge shall we...  And even 
if a character can take on a life of its own, as you stated in a 
previous post, with there only being 2 books left in the series 
there's not much more room for him to be *bigger* than what is 
intended by the author!  Ron is Ron because JKR writes him as such.  

Let's stick to canon "Ron" and not fanfic "Ron"!  IMO it seemed as 
if you were running off at the mouth when you said 'I don't care 
anymore what JKR has to say about Ron, not since she
 proved that she's prejudiced against him'...Are you mad?  It's her 
character.  Without them we wouldn't even be having this discussion 
and you wouldn't have your precious Ron to talk about and defend!  

Could you show a little respect to the woman who has given us a 
window (more like a gateway) into her world of: love, honor, 
courage, loss, pain, sorrow, regret, loyalty, friendship, and most 
of all MAGIC!  Who are you to say what JKR has control over anymore 
or not?  The character of Ron might have taken on a life of its own 
in a way, but it is still ultimately up to JKR where it will end!!!!
With all do respect
