routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed

I'm on a retina Macbook pro running Yosemite and having an issue regarding Amazon certificates and getting Brenda setup.

I've run the s3cmd --configure and it has completed successfully, but I'm still unable to use brenda-work. See the output below for more details. It appears to be a certificate issue. I will say that I'm pretty new to EC2, so I could have the configuration wrong or something. Maybe I'm using the wrong values for the ACCESS and SECRET keys? I pulled these values from the Access Keys (Access Key ID and Secret Access Key) section of Your Security Credentials inside of the Amazon Web Services Console. Any ideas?

New settings:
  Access Key: [MYACCESSKEY]
  Secret Key: [MYSECRET]
  Encryption password:
  Path to GPG program: /usr/local/bin/gpg
  Use HTTPS protocol: False
  HTTP Proxy server name:
  HTTP Proxy server port: 0

Test access with supplied credentials? [Y/n] Y
Please wait...
Success. Your access key and secret key worked fine :-)

Now verifying that encryption works...
Success. Encryption and decryption worked fine :-)

Save settings? [y/N] Y

Now when running brenda-run init, I get the following:

Robs-MacBook-Pro:brenda robsawyer$ brenda-run init
Pushing ssh public key '/Users/robsawyer/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' to AWS under 'brenda' key pair.
Error creating ssh key pair [Errno 1] _ssl.c:490: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed
Creating AWS security group 'brenda'.

Out of curiousity I tried brenda-work status and the following is happening.

Robs-MacBook-Pro:brenda robsawyer$ brenda-work status

I think I've solved the problem. I checked my ~/.bash_profile and commented out the following. I then reinstalled python via brew, ran brew doctor, restarted the iTerm and now I get:

bash_profile nonsense:

# Setting PATH for Python 2.7
# The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave
#PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin:${PATH}"
#export PATH

# Setting PATH for MacPython 2.6
# The orginal version is saved in .bash_profile.pysave
#PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin:${PATH}"
#export PATH

Now I get:

Robs-MacBook-Pro:~ me$ brenda-run init
Pushing ssh public key '/Users/me/.ssh/id_rsa.pub' to AWS under 'brenda' key pair.
KeyPair:brenda
Creating AWS security group 'brenda'.

Seems like a good start.
