First, let's have one thing straight. In Polish, there are two terms: "nationality" (which in the US is understood as "ethnic origin") - and this you get only by being born as a child of Polish parents, and "citizenship" ("nationality" in the US) - which is a legal status of a person living in Poland. The fastest way to become a citizen of Poland is to marry a citizen of Poland, but mind you, although "utility marriage" happens in Poland, it is punishable, if proven.
Another way is to obtain a status of permanent resident (comparable to the US Green Card), usually dependant on the candidate's usefulness and behavior. This means that you have to get a job here and your employer cannot find a similar specialist on the local labor market. And you have to have a spotless police record.
After some time of permanent residence (at least 5 years) you can apply for Polish citizenship, indicating that you want to settle in Poland. Each case is reviewed individually, and in motivated cases this 5-years term may be reduced.

Try to track down your nationality and go back as far as you can. Maybe you are Polish. Being Polish is really cool and that what makes you special! Good Luck!
