Why have Merry and Pippin in the Fellowship?

This is a spin off from another thread, and may have been done before, but I think it's worth a look.

Gandalf is a Wizard, Legolas an Elf-Lord and the son of a King, Boromir, son of the Steward and a great man of Gondor, Gimli, a valiant Dwarf and relative to royalty, Aragorn, heir to both Gondor and Arnor and quite useful on a journey, and Frodo and Sam.

Frodo, for the Ring he can resist better, and is willing, and Master Samwise, his faithful servant and friend.

So, apart from giving the story more hobbit material, why were Merry and Pippin apart of the fellowship?
