I remember how he got into politics. He had a really nice restaraunt but could not get a permit for a sign. (Yep, in AMERICA)

The city official in charge of such things told him he would NEVER get a permit;

SONNY: "I will get a permit."

OVERSTUFFED BUSYBODY: "And how will you do that?"

SONNY: "I'm going to get myself elected mayor, and then I'm going to FIRE you!"

He did.
