Why don't you post some examples of what you're ending up with so we can help you out?

Chances are, the sky is ending up over-exposed because you're metering (correctly) for the subject. To correct for that, you'd have to expose for the sky and use a flash or reflectors to light your subject to match the exposure. But that's just guessing without seeing examples of the problem you're having.

if you shoot the sun when the sun is behind the camera it will be blue.

You could make it more blue with post processing...

You could also sell your soul to the devil, but he doesn't want to do that either.

Nobody has suggested a polarizing filter. Wouldn't that help in this situation?
