Visa Denial / Lobbying for citizenship

So I got denied a visa in America once due to very poor academic results. I had studied there for 7 years and dropped out of school 3 times. The first 2 times I reapplied back i got reaccepted by the school and the visa officer. The last time I reapplied back about 3 years ago, I got accepted by the school but rejected by the visa officer who told me to only reapply back when my personal circumstances have improved. I did not have any criminal convictions, got deported or got in trouble with the law. I also did not overstay my visa at any time to the very best of my memory allows. Hypothetically speaking, if I create a very successful startup like Apple that has a lot of paying users and hires a large number of American programmers,(i.e. I build the prototype in Singapore and put it on the web , on Facebook , Twitter and on hacker news to get users to test the product), do you think I would be able to lobby and apply for citizenship once I have proven to have added great value to the country ?
