I can't seem to figure out the 2 errors at the bottom. Any suggestions?

It looks like you have no C compiler (if you have one, configure can't
find it in the obvious way). You need a C compiler to compile python.
You should first install a C compiler.

But are you sure you need to compile python? Isn't there a binary
package available for your platform?
