You're confusing two different questions: Why should he? (Because he's an ally and a head of state, of course he should express a view) and Why does he want us to remain? (Because it's in America's interest to try to avoid economic and political uncertainty in Europe).
Those of us who want the UK to leave the EU are perfectly entitled to respond by drawing amusing contrasts between the USA's approach to foreign treaties and the approach it is recommending we follow.
