Propane, in a sealed tank under pressure, tends to have good shelf-life.
Gasoline, stored in a vented tank, tends to turn to varnish.
A tank of diesel will support bacteria growth, which clogs the filter
(when you need it most).
If we're talking about an emergency generator that is used infrequently,
then propane is a really good choice.

A friend of ours had a propane powered generator in his cab over. Didn't like
it at all because it ran off the same tank as his heater and stove. Biggest
problem with it was propane has less power per volume than gas.
