zgirnius:
I couldn't agree more! If we exclude Harry, Ron is a natural choice. 
In addition to all the reasons above, Ron is not really a lousy 
student, as some suggest, either. He seems to have developed the 
ambition to become an Auror, and managed sufficiently high OWL grades 
on the five core subjects to continue at the NEWT level. He's no 
scholar like Hermione, but she did not write his OWL papers for him. 
Other than Harry's O in DADA, I think he and Ron did about the same.
