(Based on my own unscientific impressions as I read the posts.) So
when I discovered that Voldemort had killed her, my immediate
instinct was that she would have been a strong contender for that
post in the wizarding world too, and *that* is why Voldemort killed
her. She would have been too effective, so she had to go.

Just to further prove this point, look at the guy who ended up
becoing the Minister of Magic. The guy who used to head the Auror
division of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. So, basically
the guy who used to work for Bones ended up becoming MoM. So if she
hadn't died, it's perfectly reasonable that she would've gotten the
job instead. Imagine the terror if the person you planned on voting
for to become Minister was offed by Voldemort. Certainly implies
that he can get to anyone, doesn't it?
