This article does not say he is a citizen or want to become a citizen of the United States, it just reports that he has purchased a portion of the country. Not unlike many other foreigners, and the countries they are from, Japan for an example. In fact more and more citizens from other nations are doing the same, it want be long before they will not have to sneak into the United States they will own it and American citizens will be renting from them. Just for fun, you should check out the laws of Mexico reguarding foreign nationals purchasing property in their country, it's not so easy. Unlike Americans they are not as interested in selling out to the highest bidder, they want to keep their country. Greed and political correctness will be the death of the United States.

IF YOU WERE WORTH 53 BILLION AND WANTED TO BUY IN MEXICO IT WOULD BE A BREEZE. THE US GOVT. STATES THAT IF YOU INVEST 500K OR MORE IN THE U.S. YOU CAN BY A BUSINESS AND OR PRIVATE PROPERTY SO LONG AS THE MONEY IS CLEAN, SAY GOOD BYE TO THE RED TAPE EVEN FOR IMMIGRATION STATUS. THE U.S. GOVT MADE THE RULES SO LEARN TO LIVE WITH IT.
JUST BECAUSE HE IS MEXICAN DOESN'T MEAN HIS MONEY IS DIRTY. HE ALSO OWNS VARIOUS U.S. COMPANIES THAT EMPLOY THOUSANDS OF EVERYDAY AMERICANS....... SO COOL YOUR JETS.
