From an aesthetic perspective, I actually like the Cornel West site. It's a blast from the past, as in a website actually trying to articulate anything. Especially, how West isn't just featured as a bystander in his own campaign (as in most other designs), but actually the visual pivot that brings the elements together to form a message. (You could say, the activity evoked by this design choice may be even shocking in comparison to other campaign sites.) The unusual color palette of the action buttons in the top right corner makes a great counterpoint, both separating concerns and balancing the over-all design, bringing it to life. There isn't any need for a dramatic font choice. — While it's certainly a risky outlier, I'd like to see more of this in general web design.
