For Word 2010 and 2013  go to File  gt  Options  gt  Customize Ribbon  gt  Keyboard Shortcuts  gt  All Commands  in left list   gt  Color   in right list  -- at this point  you type in the short cut  such as Alt r  and select the color  such as red    This actually goes back to 2003 but I don t have that installed to provide the pathway

You could use a macro  but it   s simpler to use styles  Define a character style that has the desired text color and assign a shortcut key to it  say Alt R  In order to be able to switch color using just the keyboard  define another character style  say    normal     that has no special feature   just for use to get normal text after switching to your colored style  and assign another shortcut to it  say Alt N  Then you would just type text  press Alt R to switch to colored text  type that text  press Alt N to resume normal text color  etc
