He was an overachiever. He was obsessed with an unrealistic goal: to be considered "legitimate" even though he was the biggest organized criminal in America. His entire life was a chronicle of winning battles and losing wars. He was a failure.
battles and wars... care to elaborate?
Just like JFK somehow got elected to the whitehouse(cough cough, father criminal, cough cough - mob help) is the same way Michael would have achieved this "oh so pure legitimacy" that some are holding against him for trying to achieve it by the letter. Legitimacy in its truest, purest definition... LOL... please.
