I would say Gimli would be the person who would endure the Ring for the longest period of time. I remember reading somewhere that Sauron's seven rings only increased the Dwarves' lust for gold, but even after a very long time, they still were not subdued to his will.
I regret to say that I would also give my vote to Aragorn, as the other members all have some "special features". Okay, I agree, Aragorn is very special as a man, but still he would probably not be able to rival with a Hobbit's special abilities (e.g. Gollum who wore the ring for centuries) or an Elf.

Greetings,
EfR
