Hm.
Remember All My Children? Erica Kane, the female protagonist who had everything in the world happen to her, one after the other, again and again? That was kind of like Sallie Kincaid.
Every time she turned around someone else close to her was dying, another illegitimate sibling was turning up, her business was being bombed, her house was being burned and so on and so on.
The character was great but sort of underdeveloped with everything she did being a result of what her daddy would have wanted or everything she felt being told to us, not shown to us.
A strong female character? Those don't generally flow with the whims and wishes of the male characters so no - even if she did wear pants and carry a gun and drive a car.
