Greetings... I am a huge fan of this film, but for some sad reason (and i believe this is sad because i've never seen ANYONE else ever ask this question leading me to believe that it's pretty self-explainitory by simply watching the film) i do not know what Vito means when he says this. What was Barzini all along? I feel like i'm really missing something major by not knowing this key point.
