Cuban open to being VP pick, however 'slim'

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban on Thursday said he is "wide open" to the conversation around him becoming a vice-presidential candidate and is looking forward to discussing that possibility with both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, should they ask for a meeting.

"What makes me a different candidate for vice president is that I'm a geek working in the tech industry," Cuban told ESPN Radio's "Capital Games" podcast. "It's important for presidential candidates to be tech savvy. None are right now.''

Cuban called himself "fiercely independent," and said he is neither a Democrat nor a Republican.
