Yes. A potato, with skin, with a mass of 173 grams of iron, contains about 10% of the RDA. Removing the skin, which reduces the mass to 153 grams of iron, causes all but 3% of the RDA to be lost.
Can you be a vegan and still be overweight?
Possibly, but not necessarily. A standard, balanced vegan diet is going to include fewer calorically dense foods (such as high-fat meats, cheeses, milk and the like) and more low caloric density foods (such as fruits and vegetables). However, this isn't to say being vegan will make you lose weight- consuming fewer calories will make you lose weight. A vegan could scarf down sugar-coated,chocolate-covered almonds all day long, and like anyone else, gain weight. There's nothing magical about being vegan that suddenly makes weight disappear, it's simply that what most vegans eat contains fewer calories per gram than the standard American diet.
If you do decide to become vegan, it's very important that you monitor what you eat more closely, not just to verify that what you're eating is actually vegan, but also to make sure that you're consuming a balanced diet. Bad as the standard American diet may be, it's very unlikely that someone encounter a protein deficiency. But in a vegan diet, without many common protein sources (such as fish,eggs,dairy and lean meats) it's very important to make sure you are consuming enough complete proteins, likely through soy. Taking an additional B-vitamin supplement might also be helpful.

Is being vegan the same as being vegetarian?
Yes, a true vegan is not only a vegetarian, but also does not use any other animal products, such as leathers and furs. This, of course, means there are probably many people who think they are vegans, but do not realize they are using animal products in everyday life, such as hand soap which is often made from stearates (fatty acids derived from animal fats), and gelatin obtained again from animal renderings.
The term is, therefore, more of a belief or mindset, than a reality.

Any sodas which do not contain honey or certain red coloring agents are acceptable vegan drinks. Both cochineal and carmine colorings are both made of ground cochineal beetles.
Other drinks may also be excluded, such as beer or wine made using isinglass, a fish-derived precursor to gelatin. Drinks in the 'new age' category such as Snapple often contain cochineal coloring as well.
Strict veganism excludes foodstuffs which exploit, harm, or kill living creatures including insects.
However, many vegans take a view of reasonableness of effort. Spending your free time searching out new animal products to exclude from your diet is time that might be better spent on more productive pursuits.
For example, drinking a soda made primarily of high fructose corn syrup, while not harming any animals directly, encourages mono-crop agriculture, which harms biodiversity.
