The best political match probably would have been a sister of Boromir and Faramir, had there been one. The elves were leaving and both Eomer and Eowyn were already marrying people from Gondor, resulting in stronger bonds between the two countries.

I can see how the simple population may not have felt all that connected to this stranger from the North. Yes, he helped defeat Mordor's forces but so did plenty of others. Yes, he had been in Minas Tirith before, but that had been years and years ago and under a different name.
I think a marriage with the old Steward's daughter would have made the change in ruler smoother.

I can imagine that Arwen, on the other hand, while being lovely and showing the connection to all that history of Aragorn's lineage, may not only cause awe but also a further sense of estrangement from all that the Gondorians are used to, perhaps even a feeling that he was looking down on what they had and were.
