I've tried everything I can think of, including installing GitHub and working from their UI.  But I cannot get Tweepy to install.  The message I get is "No module named setup tools."

Irony meter: I got all this working on my Macbook in about an hour.

Thanks for any help,
Tony Lima

You need to install Setuptools, which is a library similar to Distribute. It's used for building and installing Python packages.

The Setuptools page provides instructions for installing on Windows, which should solve your problem.
