May 9, 2013 at 23:22 comment added Joseph Van Name I edited my answer to also include the topological proof that every ultrafilter such that each function $f:P_{0}(X)\rightarrow X$ is constant almost everywhere. I however should mention that the topological proof is very similar to the purely combinatorial proof.
May 8, 2013 at 12:20 comment added Joseph Van Name In other words, one needs to show that $\\{(f(A))_{f\in\mathcal{B}}|A\in P_{0}(X)\\}$ is a closed subspace of the product space $X^{\mathcal{B}}$.
May 8, 2013 at 4:20 comment added Joseph Van Name I wonder if there is a topological proof of this result or of similar results. Let $\mathcal{B}$ be the set $\mathcal{A}$ unioned with the set of all functions $f:P_{0}(X)\rightarrow X$ with finite range. Give $X$ the discrete uniformity and give $P_{0}(X)$ the coarsest uniformity such that every $f\in\mathcal{B}$ is uniformly continuous. Then the completion of $P_{0}(X)$ is precisely the set of all ultrafilters $U$ on $P_{0}(X)$ such that every mapping $f\in\mathcal{A}$ is constant on some set in $U$. Thus, it suffices to show that $P_{0}(X)$ is a complete uniform space.
