Leslie41:
Well, Harry is also a parselmouth.  Something extremely rare in the
wizarding world.  And he seems to have an exceptional facility with
certain powerful spells at an early age (the patronus charm).  When
you add to that that he's now got a blood tie with LV, and has in
the past been psychically connected to him, I would say that yes
that makes him "special" and not an ordinary boy.

Kathrin:
I don't have my (English) books with me, but (IIRC) right in CoS it is
stated, that Harry is a parselmouth *because* of Voldemort trying to kill
him without success. So that is part of Harry's tie to Voldemort, isn't it?
Please correct me in case I am wrong!
