Default Short Blind

Two questions about being all-in in the small/big blinds.

Here's the scenario: No Limit tournament, and the blinds are 400-800.
  1. If I'm in the small blind only have 300 left, can I win any more than 300 per player? For example, if everyone folds around to me, can I win any more than 300 from the BB?
  2. If I'm in the big blind and only have 300 left, can I win any more than 300 from the small blind?
The reason I ask is that I'm not quite sure how to interpret this rule from Robert's Rules...

17. If a player lacks sufficient chips for a blind or a forced bet, the player is entitled to get action on whatever amount of money remains. A player who posts a short blind and wins does not need to make up the blind.

The parts that confuse me are "the player is entitled to get action on whatever amount of money remains"

Does that mean on whatever money remains in his stack?

And this part: "player who posts a short blind and wins does not need to make up the blind."

Does that mean on the next hand?
