What are they misrepresenting? The client is looking to accomplish a task. They show them how to accomplish the task legally, albeit they do it in a round about manner.

However, when an illegal immigrant wants to side step the process and uses a loophole to gain entrance, or to upgrade their status, it is a poor worker just trying to make a better life.

I'm sure they know better than you what they want for their particular research projects!.
LA times poll
The bill also has a touchback requirement for those seeking a legal permanent resident visa, or green card. If their return to the U.S. were guaranteed, 85% would return home for a brief period; if it were not, only 35% would do so - LA TIMES

Teaching people how not to hire Americans? LOL If I have ever seen a totally misconstrued article to get these Immigrant bashers going this is one of them. It has nothing to do with the idea that they were going to hire Americans anyway. People that go to them are specifically going to them so that they can get whoever they are sponsoring a green card.
Why in the world would they be giving their clients a video on how to hire Americans over the people they wish to sponsor.
Usually for sponsorship you have to have a reason for wanting to sponsor the person. They should have a quality that no one else posseses.
Either way it apparently got you going even though this has nothing to do with teaching people how not to hire Americans in the way that you are trying to make it appear. There are many Employers who have hired foreign workers in the past and developed bonds with these people and rather then seeing them leave the country they help the employee out and sponsor them. Its a step towards becoming a legal citizen. in some cases people have probably used it as a means of getting family members here legally as well.
So don't try to make it out that its something its not.

I don't think its a misunderstanding, I think the author of the article knows his audience best and took advantage of this. He knew exactly what the reaction would be. Many people yammer on about how they want people to legally come into this country but they don't realize how hard it is.
I would bet that the majority of these people are probably unaware of their own roots and how hard it was for their families to come here and the sacrifices made. I saw it firsthand so I know and I see what others must go through. People are making this into a race thing and its not just an immigration thing. You will notice it when a few may have a slip of the tongue and mention a particular race that irks them most. These are the ones that don't really care about "illegal immigration" as a topic but what type of illegal immigrant is crossing the border.

All they want is cheap labor nothing more. It just so happens your daughter qualifies, but that does not mean she is smarter then Americans she is simply qualified and will just work for less.
There is no one on this earth that is so smart they cannot be replaced. If you die tomorrow they will find the cheapest qualified person they can to replace you it is a fact of life.

Your daughter is a perfect example of someone who does not need the services of these lawyers.
Suppose your daughter had such specialized skills that there were only a few countries that could employ her. Those countries were OZ and Germany.
Your daughter wanted to stay in OZ, so she applied for the job there, only to lose it to someone less-qualified from another country, because of the tactics used by these lawyers.
Unfair to your daughter, I would say. That's the kind of thing that is happening.
As for your daughter coming to the US university, I hope she gets the job. She is the ideal immigrant, imo.
