A Love Letter to America

The latest book by Pierre A. Kandorfer reveals an open secret of our life. The secret of the American spirit. It is titled “A Love Letter to America” and is written by somebody who loved the American Dream when he was still in a High School in Europe decades ago. In my vision of the American Dream, America is the only place where a poor, helpless “nobody” had a chance to live a decent life or even to become a millionaire. America appeared to us Europeans as the only society where anybody could generate his own fortune following the American spirit, this is with hard work, proper self-discipline, and limitless determination. Only in America, we were told as kids, such things are possible, and we believed that deeply. At the end of WW2, we did not have to look far-away for the proof. At that time, everything good came from America. The US rescued us from Hitler’s tyranny, fed us, helped us politically and economically to survive the terrible aftereffects of the war. What has been totally forgotten, America also gave the war-ravaged European countries, especially Germany, the vision and practical help to establish their own democratic political systems. At that time, the US Constitution was considered the ideal form of people-oriented government form. I still remember the enthusiasm of my High School teacher praising everything American. Pierre Kandorfer is a veteran journalist with thirty-five years of a media background. He wrote thousands of articles, hundreds of TV programs, and a dozen books such as “You Don’t Know Who You Really Are,” “No More Doubt – Science Confirms the Bible,” “Whom Can We Still Trust,” “Fight Back Manual,” “Find Peace of Mind or Lose Your Mind,” in addition to some media textbooks. Pierre’s books are available at NeverGiveUpYourDream.US Amazon and other booksellers

Not surprisingly, many immigrants cherish the

American Dream more than native Americans. That’s

why they are twice as likely motivated to start their

own business than people born in the US. One of the

studies done several years ago states that almost thirty

percent of all new business ventures are started by

immigrants. Even more remarkable is the fact that

forty-four out of eighty-seven American tech

companies valued more than one billion were

founded by immigrants.

Facts don’t lie

Dinesh D’Souza, a very much admired immigrant

from India, summarized his impression of the

American Dream perfectly. I fully agree with his

worldview and analysis. Like me, he traveled

throughout the world, experienced many other nations

and political systems. He can, more than most

Americans born here, compare the American way of

life with the reality in other countries. The differences

are sometimes staggering. Here is my interpretation

of his vision of America:

• America provides a much better life for

ordinary people. In most other countries,

people are either excessively rich or

depressingly poor. In the US, a construction

worker can afford a $4 non-fat latte, and a
