SyntaxError: invalid syntax on python manage.py syncdb --noinput

When running "python manage.py syncdb --noinput" on step 5 of the updated 
install document a SyntaxError occurs.

Notes: 
Django has been installed and running.
I am working from the virtual environment.

Screen Information:
(venv-stoqs)[root@localhost stoqs]# python manage.py syncdb --noinput
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "manage.py", line 2, in <module>
    from django.core.management import execute_manager
  File "/home/admin/venv-stoqs/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 68
    commands = {name: 'django.core' for name in find_commands(__path__[0])}
                                      ^

It looks as though something has not been installed or configured correctly. I 
suggested re-cloning the repository as a regular user (not root), creating and 
entering a virtual environment, running setup.sh, and then following the 
INSTALL instructions. 

For step 5 you should see:
