Lets also remember that in the case of Haiti we are dealing with a country where leaders who are popular among the poor have a tendency to be overthrown by internal and external foes:

Jean-Bertrand Aristide - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aristide was the second elected leader of Haiti and was popular among its poor inhabitants. He was overthrown twice, first in a military coup d'état in September, 1991, and subsequently in a February 2004 rebellion in which former soldiers prominently participated. After being deposed a second time he maintained from exile in South Africa that he was still the legal and legitimate president and that United States forces had kidnapped him.
