Aragorn woul not have taken the ring, because he feared the weakness an corruption that ran in his veins. He believed that given the same opportunity as Isildur, to cast the ring into the cracks of doom, that he too would fail the task and keep the ring from destruction, later to be betrayed by it.
Hobbits were definately the right choice. Frodo was older and wiser than the others, and also would most likely have had more resistance to the ring's power, even more than Sam. Sam was only 'immune' to the ring's power because he was thinking of Frodo. Because of the love Sam ha for Frodo he could resist the power and return it to the true Ringbearer, as he knew in his heart he should do. Plus, hobbits taking the ring makes a better plot than some other race taking it. ^_-
