The protobuf docs aren't clear on this, but I found the magic incantation in one of the tests.
To create a text format (ascii printable) protocol buffer using the python interface,
from google.protobuf import text_format
text_format.MessageToString(your_protobuf_object)

Note that you can also just do str(message_object) to get the same result. The interesting part about the text_format module is that it can also parse this format back into a message object (as of v2.2.0), and the C++ and Java runtimes also support parsing and writing the same format via their TextFormat classes. Works great for human-editable config files.
