parse error running builtins from array

cc=('who' 'bash -c "time ls -l"' 'date')

for e in 0 1 2; do ${cc[$e]}; done

produces an error:
ls: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
ls: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file

well, there isn't a missing " AFAICT, and playing around with them has not
helped.  Does anyone have a way out of this?
