how do i set my python path for success with my import statements?

Question

I'm trying to install djangobb and when running manage.py syncdb it returns with

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "manage.py", line 2, in <module>
    from django.core.management import execute_manage
ImportError: No module named django.core.management

I know that deep in my python installation there is django/core/management, but I just don't know how to get manage.py to find it for me. Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Make sure that the base directory for where django/ lives is on your $PYTHONPATH
