Why does a US president usually urge voters to elect members of his or her political party to congress?

The primary purpose for a US president to urge voters to elect members of his or her party to congress is to make it easier for the Party and the president to have bills the Party favors made into laws. A US president usually urges voters to elect members of his political party to congress because the president proposes laws but the congress passes laws. The president is also able to veto laws but the congress can override the President's veto. The congress (Legislative Branch) is also able to approve treaties (and the president negotiates foreign treaties) and the congress can impeach and remove the President and other high officials (the president appoints federal judges, ambassadors, and other high officials).


How does the presidency limit power?

There seems always to be a bit of a power struggle between the Legislative and the Executive branches of government. Congress passes legislation that the President is sometimes inclined to veto. Congress can attempt to override the veto, so there is mechanism in place to allow Congress to force its will in spite of an attempt by the Chief Executive to block it. The primary power that Congress has to limit the President's power is control of the Federal pursestrings. Congress decides where money will be spent, and how much.
