GEO: Yes so? He conjured the patronus with Lupin's help, but 
Voldemort has over forty years of experience with magic and the dark 
arts and was one of the brighter students trained by Hogwarts. Harry 
on the other hand is not.

GEO: Except we know that he didn't do it. It was his mother's 
sacrifice that gave him the protection to defeat Voldemort. In short 
he didn't do anything and I for one don't think he has the ability 
to defeat Voldemort especially since Voldemort can even give such a 
powerful wizard like Dumbledore such a difficult time.
