Being new to this site I am sure I may have missed this but if there is a photo or entry you could point me to I would appreciate it. In GFII when Michael is in front of the senate committe they produce a chart showing the Corleone Crime Family Organizational Tree. It's only seen for a few seconds in one scene. I was interested in what it really looked like and said as far as the order of power. Thanks for the help.

Sonny is listed on the upper right, just under Vito, under the heading "BOSS" (Deceased). Sonny was the Don, or at least the acting Don, from the time Vito was shot to the time he himself got it on the causeway.
Fredo's title of "Underboss" is purely honorary, of course. It means he doesn't answer to anybody besides Michael, but he also doesn't have any real authority of his own either.

I know all that. I know Sonny was an acting boss. But he had to have been an underboss under Vito. I find it hard to believe that Fredo is an underboss.

I guess the title of "Acting Boss" was listed for Sonny because that was his position at the time of his death. Its always fun to point out that the only two characters on that chart without a picture next to their name are Vito and Clemenza....the two who couldn't come to terms with Coppola about appearing in Part II. Was this (omission of pictures) FFC's little revenge?

[/b]I think the title "Underboss" simply means you answer only to The Don. While Vito was under no illusions with Fredo in terms of his "abiliity", I don't think Vito wanted button men telling him what to do.
