SSLv3 Alert Handshake failure

[dawiehyman]

On Mac, Python 2.7, I am able to create an Account instance as in acct=Account(id,publickey,privatekey)
but upon executing
acct.members.fetch_all()
I get this error:
requests.exceptions.SSLError: [SSL: SSLV3_ALERT_HANDSHAKE_FAILURE] sslv3 alert handshake failure

Any help?
