[FIXED] How to incorporate quotation marks into a user input?

Issue

def palindrome(s):
    s=input ("Enter a phrase (**use quotation marks for words**): ")
    s.lower()
    return s[::-1]==s

palindrome(s)

This is my code. How do I change it so I can take out the bolded section? I use python 2 and it won't accept string inputs without the quotation marks.

Solution

Use raw_input instead of input. In Python 2 input tries to evaluate the user's input, so letters are evaluated as variables.
