Actually, it is possible and has been done. Texas and hawaii were both sovereign nations before applying for statehood. There is usually a kind of give and take on both sides in such an endeavor, but a major step in achieving statehood is the citzens of a nation must vote for it.

Texas and California were both sovereign nations prior to admittance as a state. IMO it would be rather hard for another nation to petition for becoming part of the US unless they made a really good argument as to why this would be to everybody's benefit.
