The President's power is more in foreign affairs, which aren't really the area of legislative power.

Quibble. I believe the Senate has to ratify a treaty.


True - I was just distinguishing from the "writing laws" part of the Legislative power. The Senate does a few other things that aren't really law-writing (confirm nominees, conduct trials on impeachments, ratify treaties). But since foreign powers aren't subject to our laws, the "normal" process of Legislating (House and Senate pass a bill to be signed by the President) isn't normally the subject of legislation, but rather the President acting as head of state.
