How to import a 3rd party Python library into Bluemix?
The cause for this problem was that I was not correctly telling my Python app the needed configuration information when I pushed it out to Bluemix.
What I ended up having to do was add a requirements.txt file and a Procfile file into the root directory of my Python application, to draw that connection between my Python app and the needed libraries/packages.
In the requirements.txt file I specified the library packages needed by my Python app. These are the file contents:

web.py==0.37
  wsgiref==0.1.2

where web.py==0.37 is the version of the web.py library that will be downloaded, and wsgiref==0.1.2 is the version of the web server gateway interface that is needed by the version of web.py I am using.
My Procfile contains the following information:

web: python .py $PORT

where myappname is the name of my Python app, and $PORT is the port number that my Python app uses to receive requests. 
I found out too that $PORT is optional because when I did not specify $PORT my app ran with the port number under the VCAP_APP_PORT environment variable for my app. 
From there it was just a matter of pushing my app out to Bluemix again only this time it ran fine.
My Python app needs web.py to run but I'm unable to figure out how to get it up to bluemix. I see no options using cf push. I tried to "import web" and added some additional code to my app without success.
When I push my Python app to bluemix without web.py it fails (naturally) since it does not have what it needs to run.
I'm sure I'm just missing an import mechanism. Any help?
