A list of possible witnesses in a lawsuit against Oral Roberts University includes several well-known politicians.
The preliminary list names Senators Jim Inhofe and Tom Coburn plus former Tulsa Mayor Bill LaFortune and Tulsa County Commissioner Randi Miller.
It also includes former U.S. Representatives Bob Beauprez of Colorado and James Traficant of Ohio and former ORU President Richard Roberts and school founder Oral Roberts.
The lawsuit by former ORU professors Tim and Paulita Brooker claims Richard Roberts forced Tim Brooker's government students to help with Miller's 2006 race for mayor.
It also says Brooker was forced to lie to the IRS about Roberts forcing the students to help with the campaign.
