title: How can I Extract Specific xml tags from a local xml file using python?
body: <p>I'm pretty new to interacting with xml, python, and scraping data so bear with me please:
  I've got an xml file with my notes saved from evernote. I have been able to load BeautifulSoup and lxml into my python environment. I have also been able to load the xml file and print </p>
  
  <p>Heres my code up until print:</p>
  
  <pre><code>from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
  from xml.dom.minidom import parseString
  file = open('myNotes.xml','r')
  data = file.read()
  dom = parseString(data)
  print data.toxml()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I didn't include the actual printed file as it contains lots of base 64 code.</p>
  
  <p>What I am trying to accomplish is to extract select xml tags and print them to a new file... help!</p>
