Americanizing a Native American is by definintion a contradictory statement. Being the original inhabitants of the North American Continent i.e the original Americans, they cannot become Americanized through some process. What that statement may really be saying is "what does it mean to Europeanize a Native American". This refers to a process of loss of the Native American's "American" culture and identity through indocrination, re-education, and an environment of European cultures and values. The Native American loses their American identity, and adopts the identiy and culture of the Western Europeans. American today really means the descendents of Western Europeans, not Native Americans.

No. Mexican is a nationality, just as American is. Being American, or Mexican for that matter, includes being from one of many ethnicities, such as mestizo (half European, half Native American), Caucasian (9% of Mexicans are), Asian, African-American and of course, Native American.
Yes they can be fired. Native preference is codified. Tribes may discriminate against non natives for jobs.
There is no single term to define what being a Native American is, nor could a set of terms define this. Being Native American is more about a spiritual understanding inside a set of complex rules that would (and does) take a lifetime to understand.
