What would be the purpose of taking the Ring from Frodo? He was certainly too weak to walk over and give the Ring to the Nazgul, and if he had tried Strider certainly would have stopped him.

This was also a good point, but it got me thinking about something. If Frodo was to completely fall under the power of the ring as the Ringwraiths did, would its power give him strength?
Yes it would have given him enough strenght too. Also, if Aragorn had tried to stop him, he would have been destroyed himslef by Frodo. Since Aragorn couldn't run him through without suffering far worse effect then Merry on the Fields of Pelennor (becuase Merry had a blade of Westernesse that was meant to be able to pierce the King of the Nazgul, & Aragorn didn't), there was little else he could've done.
