I may be wrong, so someone please correct me if I am, but I believe the only legal way is for her to get her own green card, or for you or her to become a citizen.

You may find a great deal of information on this site.

Are you already an american citizen? If you are you can just petition her. Read the link below and consult an immigration lawyer.

If you are legally married, you have 2 options:

1. File I-130 now, but it will take 5-6 years for visa number to be available, OR
2. Wait until you become US citizen, then file I-130, it will take less than one year.

I recommend option 2... anything could happen in 5-6 years.
