I would choose Carlo Gambino
1. Charles "Lucky" Luciano (N.Y./N.J.) - Set up The Comission and orchestrated the hits on Joe Masseria and Sal Maranzano..
2. Carlo Gambino (N.Y./N.J.) - Led the Gambino family through a period of unprecedented prosperity.
3. Al Capone (Chi.)- Orchestrated St. Valentines Day Massacre..oh yeah and he's AL CAPONE!
4. Sam Giancana (Chi.) - May have had a hand in J.F.K assasination, and led Chi. Mob through some dangerous times.
Don Jasani I pretty much agree with your list but one thing You have Al capone No. 3 and Sam Giancana No. 4, But no one has mentioned Anthony (Joe Batters) Accardo I would place him above Al Capone and especially Sam Giancana. Anthony Accardo never went to prison(as far as I know) plus when Sam Giancana was hit back in june of 1975 it's been said that only Anthony Accardo could have given the order for the hit. Actually I would probably place Anthony Accardo No. 1 on the list sorry for going on for as long as I have I've been gone for awhile.
