Ahh, you aren't fleeing your big boss who is incidently also of German heritage
The barrier is high, albeit not quite as high for US citizens, I presume. What is your occupation? Being highly specialized in a technical career is generally useful (green card). The easiest is to marry a German woman  Like I did  But that wasn't planned - things just developed like that ;o)
Finding a job here definitely would make things easier. In my case - as a South African citizen I worked for an international company and they organised a work permit for me. After a couple of years I was entitled to apply for the local citizenship, but in the mean-time I had got married here. So that meant no probs at all.
