Hi! Obama,

   "Yolanda" is a Spanish name with Greek origin, but I am neither Greek nor Latina! Actually we have eliminated Africa and South, and North America continents....just a couple of continents to go! :O)

Please take care!

P.S. Is Obama an African name? Just kidding!

Take care!

Out of all the major sports in America, I like basketball the most. Glad they could play in Iran.
