In today's gospel, Christ begins to collect his disciples. They are Galileans--local men whose district was associated with a radical political sect--and fishermen. And these men will lead a revolution in human social and religious thought. To develop a universal rethinking of mankind, these are very parochial messengers.
This is not meant as a diversity joke but this is a very limited group of evangelists in an ethnic community that will carry Christ's word across languages, races, and cultures. And the subset of people most obviously absent are the intellectuals and the civic and religious leaders.
The notion that they were the most needful does not answer the other side of their conversion, the evangelical side, as the intellectuals and successful would presumably be the most persuasive.
It's like having a bunch of Cajuns change the world.
