No. You should read the same between hot and white and hot and ground. The white and ground wire are tied together in the panel box.
Voltage measurements will not help you diagnose this problem.

So, are you saying when measuring voltage, and I hot the leads on black (hot) and ground, I should read 0 volts??

When it's on, they differ by about 0.4-0.6 volts.
This is your problem.
There is a ground fault in your converter/power supply.
The "ground" wire in a 120 V circuit is a safety device ONLY and should never carry any of the actual operating current.
