		Sergeant was Henry Clay's running mate on the National Republican ticket in 1832 but lost to Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren in a landslide and again retreated from public life.
		Sergeant died in Philadelphia on November 23, 1852 and was buried in Laurel Hill Cemetery.

		John Sergeant first entered British public consciousness when, in November 1990, he was bundled down the steps of the Paris embassy by Sir Bernard Ingham.
		Sergeant's recent autobiography, Give Me Ten Seconds, was an engaging read because of its warm, self-deprecating mix of family history, insider tales of life as a Westminster reporter, and keen sense of the absurd.
		And Sergeant is absolutely right when he focuses on this regicide - by her scheming colleagues and not the great British electorate - as the poison at the well of all subsequent feuds.

	The Scotsman - Critique - Handbagging Thatcher
		The essential flaw with Maggie appears to be Sergeant’s lack of access to the women or her intimates: she refused to be interviewed for this book, and that refusal doubtless influenced her inner circle.
		The willingness of the Tory politicians after her to strive for the unobtainable standard of ideological purity she presented, therefore, has doomed the party to destructive infighting.
		Sergeant is kept at a distance by those same protection officers, able only to report that the lady talked to George Robertson, the former Labour defence secretary.

	Maggie and me: ThePost.ie
		When the grocer's daughter made her first public statement as British prime minister in 1979 (which was, rather incongruously, a prayer by St Francis of Assisi), it was the BBC reporter who held the microphone outside 10 Downing Street.
		After over a decade as the BBC's chief political correspondent, however, Sergeant finally got to partially fulfil his childhood wish by appearing on programmes such as Have I Got News For You andRoom101.Far from compromising one's dignity, he insists, a schoolboy's sense of humour can be a valuable asset for a television journalist.
		Sergeant may enjoy fooling around, but he is not without his serious side.

		John Wyclif was both a great champion of the Reformation and a dismal failure.

		The charges are not now known, but speculation is that they had to do with Wyclif’s teaching on lordship and dominion that attributed to civil rulers the power to seize church property, as well as with Wyclif’s stand against the church’s power of excommunication.
