High blood pressure happens to be about 50% higher in blacks as well. Obesity is only 20% higher, so there very well could just be a racial component in high blood pressure.

For reasons like this, I am in favor of keeping statistics by race for medical research but not for anything else. Other statistics by race only benefit the bean counters and the race hustlers. They do nothing to bring about benefits for the country or for individual liberty or opportunity.
