I would like to point out that Gandalf operated under rules-he was forbidden to subdue ANY people using force. He could not, and did not, use his full power during the LoTR series.

With the Ring, he would forsake these rules. If, of course, the Ring actually managed to corrupt him. Gandalf is, after all, Olorin, wisest of the Maiar. And probably one of the strongest as well. He would then become orders of magnitude stronger that Sauron, because Sauron would lose the strength in the Ring (Which he hasn't had for ages anyway) and is already a diminished version of his former self. Who was, of course, reinforced by the power of Morgoth.

Corrupted Gandalf with Ring? Oh...my...goodness. Thank goodness he's the WISEST of the Maiar. :)
