German Doktorat and American PhD

G

Hi,
I am about to complete a Doctorate degree in business administration from a German university. I also have a Fulbright scholarship and want to pursue a PhD in Economics next year. Does anyone know if it would be a problem in the US to start a PhD AFTER having completed a "Doktorat" in Germany? Anyone familiar with the German system will know that a German Doktor is not comparable with a PhD; Do any of you have experience with this? Do you know what American Grad Schools will think about my application?
Thanks for you help guys!
Best,
Stefan
