While I understand Andreas reply, we should not loose sight that Python users do not necessarily want to know that much about Emacs. There is a quite a long way between starting Emacs to edit Python code, and knowing about Emacs variables, discovering M-x functions like describe-variable (there are so many of these functions, and so many ways to get help), and load-path details. To develop python-mode, knowing Emacs more deeply is inescapable. To use python-mode, we should expect about nothing from user knowledge about Emacs Lisp. So, for any basic "good question", this is python-mode's README that should tell you. It should be sufficient to get fully started.
