I know there are a lot of organizations out there (good, worthwhile organizations) that have goals and objectives consistent with Ron Paul and his Campaign for Liberty.
One of the best, in my opinion, is the Freedom First Society (http://www.freedomfirstsociety.org/articles/).
Founded by some long time leaders of the John Birch Society (including my father-in-law), it seems to have retained some of the purest and most effective tactics of the JBS while ridding itself of some of it's organizational and ideological dead weight.
I don't know if anyone has made a list of organizations worthy of our attention, membership, and support; but I think FFS should be on our short list.

What is Freedom First Society?
Freedom First Society is an action-driven membership organization that builds on the political philosophy of the Founding Fathers: our nation is a Republic — a government of laws. Our Constitution, the highest law of the land, also serves to protect our God-given rights against the whims of any one person or even of the majority.
We value responsibility, truth, justice, initiative, and self-sacrifice.
Some of our priorities:
Emphasize the proper role of the U.S. government.
Expose the conspiracy to manipulate world affairs (including the nightly news).
Act as patriots to defend our country and promote man's God-given right to be free.
Encourage a healthy distrust of those we entrust with power.
Influence like-minded people to take action, which will then influence others.
By the way, any one put off by my recent "defense" of the establishment's version of global warming will probably enjoy their article:
