Answer:

Whitman's writings extol democracy in America and successes of his nation in many of his writings.

Explanation:

The idea of French political thinker Alexis de Tocqueville's is illustrated in many of Walt Whitman's writings. His writings idolize democracy and his nation's achievements.

One example of his eulogy is short poem written by Whitman titled 'America'. In this poem, Whitman extols America as being the mother of many sons and daughters. He states that America is a 'center of equal daughters and equal sons', praising the equality promoted in his nation. He states that America has endured with <em>freedom, law, and love</em>, claiming America to be the mother of all.

Therefore, Whitman's writings illustrates the idea of Tocqueville of America.
