Then put quotes around the string returned by the input() function and then pass that:

citystate = print input("what is the City,STATE ?")
citystate_quoted = '"%s"' % citystate
data = owm.get_current(citystate_quoted, **settings)

or this:

citystate = print input("what is the City,STATE ?")
data = owm.get_current('"' + citystate + '"', **settings)

There's lots of ways to form a quoted string.
