It looks like it's expecting the base format to be spelled
"markdown", not abbreviated to "md". (The python wrapper
expands "md" to "markdown", but not if it's followed by
any + or - options.) So try:

pypandoc.convert(s, 'latex', format="markdown+raw_tex")

BTW, I just installed pandoc on MacOSX to try this out,
and it seems that raw_tex is enabled by default for me --
I have to turn it *off* with format="markdown-raw_tex"
in order to get the behaviour you're seeing. Maybe a
different version? My pandoc says it's version 1.12.0.1.
