For the primer, I would use a stain killing primer, which is actually a
shellac, which covers stains and colors and will not let them bleed through.
There are two brands that I am familiar with; one is KiILZ and the other is
B.I.N.  I believe both are available at Home Depot, Lowes and most paint
stores.  It is made of shellac because shellac is fast drying and the fact
that it is fast drying keeps stains from showing through.

if there is loose paper it might be easier to try to reglue that than 
try to take the paper off and I agree with Tom and others a good coat 
of primer let it dry good and then at least one coat of paint. sand 
that molding in place because if you try to take it down or up while 
sanding it will split for sure. just a light paper to rough up the 
surface which will help hold the new paint.Lee
