There is something in American folklore that induces us to believe that America has become a great and powerful country because brilliant and talented people came to live here. There is something in the folklore of each of our families that leads us to believe that we are unique. We all have these stories in the history of our families. of how our grandfathers came here as poor immigrants who did not speak the language. I love to tell the story of my wifes family. My wifes grandfather came to America as an indentured laborer. where he signed a contract to come to America with a sugar plantation where he agreed to work a number of years to pay off that contract.
