You know who else never had a "real job?" Jackie Kennedy, and Lady Bird Johnson (unless "using daddy's money to buy a radio station and then totally non-suspiciously getting a legal monopoly for the entire city of Austin" counts), and Rosalynn Carter. Oh, and Theresa Heinz, and Tipper Gore (unless "part-time photographer" counts), and Kitty Dukakis, and Joan Mondale (unless "part-time museum tour guide for less than a year" counts). Oh, and if we're going the class warfare route and excluding jobs earning more than six figures, Hillary Clinton and Michelle Obama.
(In short, the only Democratic first lady candidate ever to hold a working-class job for any extended period of time out of economic necessity rather than personal choice was Eleanor McGovern).
