Chapter 19 Misfits questions.

      In this discussion with Ms. Wyman and, later, Mr. Kiley, Bobby surprises everyone with his rebuttal. What does he argue, and how does he convince Wyman and Kiley? 
      Bobby argues about the sighns and meeting with Mr. Kiley, "Maybe we could meet with you and Mr. Kiley," Bobby says that he wants them to just hear the people of the No-Name Party, "If you would just hear what it is we are trying to do,you would understand about the signs. Will you do that, Ms. Wyman, Please? Just hear us?"  (Pg. 185)
      Bobby convinced Wyman and Kiley by saying, "The problem with the Freedom Party was that it wasn't specific enough. Even saying we represented minorities didn't mean a whole lot. But saying we want to put an end to kids being called names, well, that does have a meaning. And you have to admit it would make a difference. I mean, you don't have to admit anything, I'm not telling you what to do." (Pg. 189)
