State as in US state or state as in independent nation? if the former it would be possible if you could get both a leader who applied for state hood while having a president and congress that would let it through. If the latter some kind of pod that stopped colonization of the Americas.
 
how this is possible? I don't know.

Cool thought though.

Get the British to retain the southern colonies (North Carolina, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida) during the American Revolutionary War, which were relatively loyalist compared to New England. Great Britain might be able to get a Seminole state/province in whatever union came up between the southern colonies.

Edit: I just described Glen's Dominion of Southern America...

On the subject of proposed American Indian states in the US an invaluable source is
http://books.google.com/books?id=rcY8AAAAIAAJ&pg=PA87 It was written in 1908, and the author begins it by observing " The recent admission to statehood of Oklahoma, with its mixture of red, black, and white inhabitants, marks the definite abandonment of an idea that had previously been advocated at intervals for more than a hundred years. This idea was the erection of a State, exclusively Indian, that should be a bona fide member of the American Union."
