laura bush worked as a librarian before she met her husband, also she isn't really involved in policy, she's more about side projects. hillary clinton was a lawyer who had a whole career alongside Bill in the law. she was involved heavily in the policy of the Governor and President. so it is valid experience.

Bow ties are coool.
