Frodo is the hobbit Gandalf gave the ring to so why you're bringing up another character who just happened across the ring in a thread about which character is the wisest is again only something you would so.
LoL, you fail so hard. Gandalf scared him straight, it was still ultimately Bildo's decision to give the ring up and he's the only one to do so voluntarily. Listen, if you can't be bothered to read the books, at least look shit up, unless you like looking like a chimp?
Here, let me help your chimp-like mind: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilbo_Baggins
Did you not pick up in the films that Frodo was about the only person who could have taken the Ring all the way to Mount Doom without succumbing to its will? Cos he did exactly that, made it to the heart of the mountain, only then when the ring was at full potential did Frodo falter. Considering the ring held the will of a god-like being, that's not too shabby. Speaks well for Gandalf's decision making, again.
I'm getting tired of having to explain the basics to you, Quam.
