Unfortunately, a letter from family in the state will actually HURT your chances of a visa. If they ask at your interview, be HONEST that you are visiting family in the US. I would NOT bring that letter.

YOU need to show proof that you have TIES TO YOUR COUNTRY and that you will RETURN to your country. What can HELP (not guaranteed) are things such as: letters from employers, leases/mortgages, car payments, etc.

Like above, honestly no one from the US side can help much as it is your duty to show you can pay for the trip and support yourself while in the US. They don't even have to look at anything you take to show them even honestly.  As mentioned other things like work, property, and other strong ties to home are the thing they want. The embassy always assumes you aren't just planning to visit and your duty is to prove to them you plan on returning after the trip.
