They set it up that way for "security reasons", or so they say. I assume since the distro is more aimed at us who are tired of messing with junk, and the unwashed masses, they decided to lock it down a bit. So root has no login or password. Everything is sudo and not all users can sudo.
Hmmm... perhaps part of the reason that I don't see the point in how Ubuntu has implemented root/su/sudo/etc. is that I assume that sudo provides the same functionality as su. I'll be researching that now. :-)
