Well, I do get your point, but let's not forget that Aurors are part
of the Ministry. I suspect they are at the top of Magical Law
Enforcement; sort of the criminal division vs the civil division of
law enforcement.

Junior Minister position.

What I hear you saying, is that Ron would either start in an
administrative position, or start in Law Enforcement but not as an
Auror, and work his way up from there. 

That's a very possible speculation, personally Auror seems like a much
more fun starting point, but I wonder (as I've pointed out elsewhere
in this thread) if Ron will have had his fill of Dark Wizard fighting,
danger and adventure by the time Voldemort is defeated, and will as
you suggest then want something a little more tame.

Just thinking out loud.
