Aristide cares for the mass just like Mandela, Ghandi and Martin Luther King. Anyway, you are entitled to your opinion.

Which of the Aristides belongs on that list?

As I remember there were two Aristides. In his earlier incarnation as a priest, he was a hero in the tradition of Mandela.  But, after the coup d'etat in 1991, something in him changed while he was in exile in the U.S. He was not the same man when he returned to Haiti in 1994. His second presidency was a disappointment.
