I did a search in the Fredipedia for 'UN,' 'United Nations,' and came up empty handed. Do you, by any chance, happen to know his stance vis a vis the UN?

Funny you should ask that. I was just reading one of his position papers on his old Senate website today.

Foreign Policy

Lastly, the United States should work through international institutions, such as the United Nations and the World Trade Organization, to help resolve regional disputes, to voice our concerns about the actions of other nations, and to promote our values and ideas. However, Senator Thompson does not believe that the United States should be expected to shoulder the financial burden of these international institutions. Each country that has a voice in the operation of the institution should share the burden of operating the institution. Nor does he believe that the United States should cede any of our sovereign rights as a nation to multilateral institutions. At no time should international institutions be given the authority to tax American citizens, control U.S. soldiers outside our chain of command, prosecute Americans soldiers and citizens, or make laws governing the American people.

It can’t be! The Fred-haters told me that they got info straight from God Himself that Fred is a neo-con Globalist who will do everything in lockstep with the Illuminati and the Council on Foreign Relations!
