I think you got the main points, but you could've gone a bit more in-depth with things like the acts and policies which show the people what they are or aren't for. In some cases, like abortion, dealth penalty, the war, etc, there are many levels which need to be understood beyong "He's for so and so." Overall, I think you did well with getting the main point, though.
