DonMichael, I have to disagree with you a little on this one because the Don sometimes saw value in trusting people who were not blood. The best example was Tom Hagen, who he trusted more than his own son. After Sonny dies, the Don even said to Tom "I never thought you were a bad Consiglieri, I though Santino, rest in peace, was a bad Don."
I didn't mean trusting people who were not blood I meant a "close family" I said blood to distinguish the Corleone Family from the Corleone Crime Family
