No.

Direct democracy (or pure democracy) is a form of government in which people vote on policy initiatives directly, as opposed to a representative democracy in which people vote for representatives who then vote on policy initiatives.

With National Popular Vote, citizens would not rule directly but, instead, continue to elect the President by a majority of Electoral College votes, to represent us and conduct the business of government in the periods between elections.

Dude, you are the cut and paste queen. Joe Biteme Biden would be proud but I don’t think you have any idea of what you are really talking about. It seems to me you are using this classic marxist agenda of getting popular vote (like they managed to achieve (disgracefully so)in the 17th amendment) to give you a forum to post your google searches. I see many here have already got you pegged, but alas, with regular myopathy, you go charging ahead.
