If Sonny hadn't fallen for the 50 year bid on that trumped up bank robbery conspiracy case, he WOULD HAVE BECOME THE BOSS. Hands Down!!
NOBODY had his rep, background, experience or "flavor" and fortitude so to speak. He was a highly respected mafioso!
But would he have been a good boss? Well that depends.
In some ways he would have been a fabulous boss. In some other ways?? I'm not sure. Like anything else in life, everybody has their strong points and their weaknesses. Sonny was no different. Good AND bad. Like all of us.
I think that he wouldn't use nepotism like Persico did and that after the commission case he would step down as boss so the colombos would have a 3 war but its just my opinion.
