They got their new constitution in 04 when it was approved by a loya jirga.
Then elections were held and Karzai was elected.

So the tribal leaders approved a constitution they do not need to obey and our puppet survived a single election, probably because of the tribal leadership who told their vassals who to vote. Then, it took our puppet five years until he was in the position where he only could survive the election by rigging it.

What a holy, magical, epic moment of democratization. A corrupt president, involved in drug trafficking, was put into power by a foreign power, which convinced the local tribe leaders to pledge support to a worthless constitution which they do not have to obey. In return, the puppet was allowed to stay in power. Even after he lost the "support" of the population and took a shit on our democratic ideals. That sure outperforms a more practical attempt of installing a constitutional monarchy, for per definition public order and economic prosperity cannot outweight a fake democracy caught in a civil war quagmire.
