Who will be the leader of the Order of the Phoenix?

I've been thinking of Arthur Weasley's character lately. I think that 
this everyday man, who enjoys the simple things in life, who is 
underestimated and looked down upon by Lucius Malfoy and the 
ministry, is going to become the new Order leader.

Yes, I know, wishful thinking you say.

Have you ever noticed that the most secure people often tend to be 
understated? They never feel the need to boast or brag, and they 
often enjoy the simple things in life. I see Arthur as this kind of 
man (Dumbledore was also this kind of man).

Arthur is a very interesting man. We know that he is the exact 
opposite of Lucius Malfoy--a biggoted, cruel, and hateful person. We 
also know that Arthur has raised his children to be respectful of 
Muggles. We have also seen him go after the twins when he believed 
they were behaving improperly--when they played the prank against 
Dudley, as well of other stories relating to the outrageous things 
the twins have done to Ron in particular.  

It is obvious when we hear the children defending Muggles (I have 
heard Ginny, Fred, George, and Ron stand up for them) that they are 
learning the proper lessons from their father. They have a belief in 
what is right (from dad), and have learned unconditional love (from 
their mother). 

Arthur is a very brave man--in an understated way. I love that he 
took Harry to his hearing. I love that he risks his life for Harry 
and for the Order even if it puts him and his family in danger. This 
is a very brave family. They all are strong in their conviction for 
what is right.  He has taught his children well. 

Not once have I seen Ron back away from helping Harry (even with his 
fear of spiders he still went into the forest). 

I think that the Weasley family is a very important family! 

I would like to see Arthur step into Dumbledore's role as Order 
leader. I think that this man has been underestimated (even by fans)
because he is poor, and because he allows Molly to be herself. He 
loves Molly, he gets her! He doesn't have to prove to anyone that he 
wears the pants in the family--because he does. Percy's comment that 
his dad 'has no ambition,' just saddens me because Percy just doesn't 
get it. I think that Arthur has his priorities straight if you ask 
me. 

I secretly hope that Arthur (King Arthur?) is the heir of Gryffindor.
My feeling is that Dumbledore comes from the same family line. I 
think that this family is going to kick ass in the next book.

Weasley is our King!
