Dumbledore let Malfoy disarm him so he would be the rightful owner of the Elder Wand. Thus not allowing Voldy to gain the complete power of the wand. Dumbledore knew Malfoy wouldnt kill him.

Also, he let Snape kill him because he knew this would convince Voldy into thinking Snape was on his side. Snape became Voldermort's right hand man even though he was still good.

Dumbledore's death was a perfect plan to help Harry win the war. Dumbledore knew Harry had to be the one to do it, but since he wasn't a very powerful wizard, he needed some help.

So you're saying he wasn't already dying from the ring?

No that was a mistake. Dumbledore intended for Snape to murder him, and due to the fact Dumbledore was embracing this, Dumbledore would go unconquered and thus the power of the Elder Wand would die with him. Why would Dumbledore have wanted Draco to become master of the Elder Wand? Its not like he could foresee Harry taking Draco's wand from him. Yeah it was a mistake that worked in Harry's favor, but it certainly wasn't intended. I think this is strong evidence that Gandalf could have taken Dumbledore, since Draco did defeat Dumbledore in a duel.
